[RuCl2(PPh3)(PNN‘)] Complexes as Efficient Catalysts in Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones
摘要:
Ruthenium complexes of the general formula [RuCl2(PPh3)(PNN')] have been obtained from tridentate PNN' ligands containing phosphine (P), amine or imine (N), and pyridyl donor groups (N'). The imino ligand Ph2P(o,o'-C6H4CH=NCH2C5H4N) (a) has been synthesized from Ph2P(2-C6H4CHO) and 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine, whereas amino Ph2P(o,o'-C6H4CH2NHCH2C5H4N) (b) is prepared by the reduction of a with NaBH4. The complexes trans-[RuCl2(PPh3)(PNN')] [PNN' = b, (1); a, (2)] containing a five-membered NN' cycle have been isolated in high yield by the reaction of RuCl2(PPh3)(3) with b and a, respectively. By the same route and using the ligand Ph2P(o,o'-C6H4CH=NCH2CH2C5H4N)] (c), the complex cis-[RuCl2(PPh3)(c)] (3) was isolated, and it displays a different stereochemistry as a result of the different size of the tridentate ligand. For the amino derivative 1, an X-ray diffraction experiment was carried out. Treatment of [RuHCl(PPh3)(3)] with the ligands a or b leads to the monohydride complexes trans-[RuHCl(PPh3)(PNN')] [PNN' = b, (4); a, (5)]. Complexes 1-5 have been proven to catalyze the transfer hydrogenation of linear, cyclic, and aromatic ketones to secondary alcohols in 2-propanol at reflux and in the presence of (CH3)(2)CHONa with a very high rate (TOF values up to 250 000 h(-1)). The trans derivatives 1 and 2 containing the amino and imino functions catalyze the reduction of acetophenone with the same activity (TOF = 190 000 and 185 000 h(-1), respectively), suggesting that the C=N group is reduced during catalysis. A lower activity has been observed for complexes 3-5.
HYDROGENATION OF ESTERS TO ALCOHOLS IN THE PRESENCE OF A RU-PNN COMPLEX
摘要:

The invention relates to monocarbonyl complexes of ruthenium and osmium with bi- and tridentate nitrogen and phosphine ligands. The invention relates to methods for preparing these complexes and the use of these complexes, isolated or prepared in situ, as catalysts for reduction reactions of ketones and aldehydes both via transfer hydrogenation or hydrogenation with hydrogen.
The hydrogenation of esters catalyzed by a manganese complex of phosphine-aminopyridine ligand was developed. Using this protocol, a variety of (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic carboxylates including biomass-derived esters and lactones were hydrogenated to primary alcohols with 63–98% yields. The manganese catalyst was found to be active for the hydrogenation of methyl benzoate, providing benzyl alcohol

Pincer complexes: A simple and practical approach for the hydrogenation of (+)-Sclareolide to (−)-Ambradiol. The applied manganese catalyst can be prepared in two steps starting from commercially available starting materials. The procedure can be applied for a number of other esters highlighting the versatility of the developed protocol.

The coordination chemistry of a series of pro-ligands ([L1]–[L6]) with cobalt and zinc derivatives has been studied. All complexes have been characterized by multinuclear NMR, elemental analysis, and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Polymerization of rac-lactide takes place at 130 °C in the presence of cobalt and zinc complexes to yield polymers under solvent free conditions with controlled molecular masses and narrow polydispersities.

An iron-catalyzed deoxynitrogenation strategy to convert carboxylic acids into nitriles is reported. This method utilizes a cyanamide as the recyclable nitrogen donor and deoxygenating reagent and features an easy-to-setup without inert gas protection. The synthetic value of this method is highlighted by the broad substrate scope and application in late-stage modification of pharmaceuticals and scaleup
