Heterogeneous Hydrothiolation of Alkynes with Thiols Catalyzed by Diphosphino-Functionalized MCM-41 Anchored Rhodium Complex
摘要:
A novel diphosphino-functionalized MCM-41 anchored rhodium complex [MCM-41-2P-RhCl(PPh3)] was conveniently synthesized by the reaction of diphosphino-functionalized MCM-41 (MCM-41-2P) with RhCl(PPh3)(3). It was found that this rhodium complex is an efficient catalyst for the hydrothiolation of terminal alkynes with thiols and can be recovered and recycled by a simple filtration of the reaction solution and used for at least ten consecutive trials without any decreases in activity.

To synthesize sulfur-containing π-conjugated polymers, reaction conditions for rhodium-catalyzed hydrothiolation of terminal alkynes with arenethiols are optimized in detail. Under the optimized conditions, rhodium-catalyzed hydrothiolation of terminal alkynes proceeds regio- and stereoselectively to afford the corresponding vinyl sulfides via an anti-Markovnikov and syn-addition process. Then, the rhodium-catalyzed hydrothiolation is applied to polymerization of 2,5-diethynylthiophene with benzene-1,4-dithiol, which successfully provides sulfur-containing π-conjugated polymers with excellent regio- and stereoselectivities.
