A Flexible and Versatile Strategy for the Covalent Immobilization of Chiral Catalysts Based on Pyridinebis(oxazoline) Ligands
摘要:
Flexible and versatile methods have been developed for the immobilization of chiral pyridinebis(oxazoline) ligands by covalent bonding to a solid support, either by grafting or by polymerization. Different spacers can easily be introduced to modulate the support-ligand distance and the electronic properties of the chiral ligand. As an example, 2,6-bis [(S)-4-isopropyloxazolin-2-yl] pyridine has been immobilized on polystyrene resins, both on a Merrifield-type resin by grafting and on supports prepared by polymerization of 4-vinyl-substituted ligands. The corresponding Ru complexes have been tested as catalysts in the cyclopropanation reaction between styrene and ethyl diazoacetate. The catalytic activity, the enantioselectivity, and the recyclability are strongly dependent on the catalyst preparation method and the total exclusion of oxygen and moisture in the filtration process. Under such optimized conditions, yields over 60% with up to 90% ee can be obtained in four successive reactions-the best cyclopropanation results described to date for a chiral solid ruthenium catalyst.

The safe and reliable use of various fluorination methods including nucleophilic fluorination (DAST), trifluoromethylation (Ruppert's reagent) and electrophilic fluorination (Selectfluor®) in a continuous-flow microreactor is reported. Special attention was given to the use of in-line scavenging procedures in order to obtain clean products without the need for further purification.
A series of PyBox ligands were prepared from commercially available chelidonic acid by a multistep flow sequence using mesoreactor technology. A chloro group introduced onto the ligand scaffold was subsequently exploited to give amine derivatives ready for immobilization through microencapsulation technologies.
Using CoCl2 and a chiral tecton possessing C2 chirality and based on two coordination poles composed of a pyridine unit connected at the 4-position to a pyridine bearing at the 2 and 6 positions two optically active oxazoline moieties, a polar solid is obtained. The latter results from the acentric packing of directional 1-D coordination networks.

The design, synthesis, and characterization of the 10 linear and bent acentric ligands 1–10 (tectons) based on the differentiation of two divergently disposed coordinating poles is reported. The nature of the two poles and their distance are varied by the use of different linear spacers. For these molecules, a monodentate coordinating site, i.e., a pyridine ring, and a tridentate coordinating site

Polar, noncentrosymmetric packing of directional, 1-D hydrogen-bonded networks of chiral, 4-amino-2,6-bis(oxazolinyl)pyridines (ampybox) occurs for isopropyl-substituted ampybox 2; in contrast, 1-D networks of methyl-substituted ampybox 1 pack in an antiparallel arrangement.
