Hydrogenolysis of β-O-4 lignin model dimers by a ruthenium-xantphos catalyst

Hydrogenolysis reactions of so-called lignin model dimers using a Ru-xantphos catalyst are presented (xantphos = 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene). For example, of some nine models studied, the alcohol, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanol (), with 5 mol% Ru(H)(2)(CO)(PPh(3))(xantphos) () in toluene-d(8) at 135 °C for 20 h under N(2), gives in ～95% yield the C-O cleavage hydrogenolysis products, acetophenone () and guaiacol (), and a small amount (<5%) of the ketone, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenylethanone (), as observed by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The in situ Ru(H)(2)(CO)(PPh(3))(3)/xantphos system gives similar findings, confirming a recent report (J. M. Nichols et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2010, 132, 12554). The active catalyst is formulated 'for convenience' as 'Ru(CO)(xantphos)'. The hydrogenolysis mechanism proceeds by initial dehydrogenation to give the ketone , which then undergoes hydrogenolysis of the C-O bond to give and . Hydrogenolysis of to and also occurs using the Ru catalyst under 1 atm H(2); in contrast, use of 3-hydroxy-2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenyl-1-propanone (), for example, where the CH(2) of has been changed to CHCH(2)OH, gives a low yield (≤15%) of hydrogenolysis products. Similarly, the diol substrate, 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1-phenyl-1,3-propanediol (), gives low yields of hydrogenolysis products. These low yields are due to formation of the catalytically inactive complexes Ru(CO)(xantphos)[C(O)C(OC(6)H(4)OMe)[double bond, length as m-dash]C(Ph)O] () and/or Ru(CO)(xantphos)[C(O)CH[double bond, length as m-dash]C(Ph)O] (), where the organic fragments result from dehydrogenation of CH(2)OH moieties in and . Trace amounts of Ru(CO)(xantphos)(OC(6)H(4)O), a catecholate complex, are isolated from the reaction of with . Improved syntheses of and lignin models are also presented.     

Adsorption Mechanism of Acetylene Hydrogenation

First‐principles calculations are carried out to examine the adsorption of acetylene over the Pd (111) surface. A hydrogen adsorption system is initially investigated to confirm the reliability of the selected calculation method. Adsorption energies, Mulliken‐populations, overlap populations, charge density, and projected density of states (PDOS) are then calculated in the optimised acetylene adsorption system. Results show that C₂H₂ molecule tends to adsorb through the threefold parallel‐bridge configuration that is computed to be the most stable. In this structure, the distance of the C? H bond is calculated to be 1.09 Å, and the C‐C‐H bond angle is 128°. The distance of the C? C bond in acetylene is 1.36 Å, increasing from 1.21 Å in the gas phase. Moreover, the C? C bond overlap population decreases from 1.98 to 1.38, revealing that the carbon configuration in C₂H₂ rehybridises from sp to sp² and beyond. The obtained results are compared with available experimental studies on acetylene hydrogenation on single‐metal surfaces. The PDOS study indicates that a carbonaceous layer may generate on the metal surface during acetylene adsorption. The carbonaceous layer can affect the adsorption and reaction of acetylene, thereby inactivating the metal surface. Our experiments also show that Pd exhibits high catalytic activity.     

Studies on the Valence Band of Ethylene (C2 H4) on Fu ( ) Surface

The ethylene(C2H4)absorbs in molecular state on Ru (1010) surface stably below 200K. The dehydrogenated of ethylene occurs at 200K. The main product of the dehydrogenation of the absorbed ethylene is the acetylene (C2H2). After the dehydrogenation of the absorbed ethylene, the binding energies ofσCCandσCHbond have an increase of 0.5 and 1.1eV respectively. The C-C bonds of both ethylene and acetylene tilt in <0001> azimuth.     

Unsaturated Ru(0) species with a constrained bis-phosphine ligand: [Ru(CO)2(tBu2PCH2CH2PtBu2)]2. Comparison to [Ru(CO)2(PtBu2Me)2

The synthesis of Ru(C2H4)(CO)2(dtbpe) (dtbpe = tBu2PC2H4PtBu2), then green [Ru(CO)2(dtbpe)]n is described. In solution, n = 1, while in the solid state, n = 2; the dimer has two carbonyl bridges. DFTPW91, MP2, and CCSD(T) calculations show that the potential energy surface for bending one carbonyl out of the RuP2C(O) plane is essentially flat. Ru(CO)2(dtbpe) reacts rapidly in benzene solution to oxidatively add the H-E bond of H2, HCl, HCCR (R = H, Ph), [HOEt2]BF4, and HSiEt3. The H-C bond of C6HF5 oxidatively adds at 80 degrees C. CO adds, as does the C=C bond of H2C=CHX (X = H, F, Me). The following do not add: N2, THF, acetone, H3COH, and H2O.     

The HRuCCH, RuCCH2, and Ru-η2-C2H2 molecules: infrared spectra and density functional calculations

Laser-ablated ruthenium atoms undergo reaction with acetylene during condensation in excess neon and argon matrices to form a metallacycle complex, insertion into the C-H bond, and rearrangement to the vinylidene complex. The subject molecules were identified by (13)C(2)H(2) and C(2)D(2), isotopic substitutions and density functional theory (DFT) frequency calculations. The HRuCCH molecule is described by Ru-H, CH, and CC stretching modes and CCH deformation modes. A very strong CC double bond stretching, weak CH stretching, and CCH deformation frequencies were observed for the Ru═C═CH(2) complex. The metallacycle Ru-η(2)-(C(2)H(2)) is characterized through CC double bond stretching, CH stretching and CCH deformation modes. The reaction mechanism for formation of the Ru═C═CH(2) complex was investigated by B3LYP internal reaction coordinate calculations, and the hydrido-alkyny complex is the rate-determining step. The delocalized three-center-four-electron π bond using the Ru 4d(xz) electron pair contributes to the C-C π* orbital and provides stabilization energy (ΔE((2)), second-order perturbation) for the vinylidene Ru═C═CH(2) complex.     

Hydride Ligands Make the Difference: Density Functional Study of the Mechanism of the Murai Reaction Catalyzed by [Ru(H)(2) (H(2) )(2) (PR(3) )(2) ] (R=cyclohexyl)

The catalytic cycle for the Murai reaction at room temperature between ethylene and acetophenone catalyzed by [Ru(H)(2) (H(2) )(2) (PMe(3) )(2) ] has been studied computationally at the B3PW91 level. The active species is the ruthenium dihydride complex [Ru(H)(2) (PMe(3) )(2) ]. Coordination of the ketone group to Ru induces very easy C?H bond cleavage. Coordination of ethylene after ketone de-coordination, followed by ethylene insertion into a Ru?H bond, creates the Ru?ethyl bond. Isomerization of the complex to a Ru(IV) intermediate creates the geometry adapted to C?C bond formation. Re-coordination of the ketone before the C?C coupling lowers the energy of the corresponding TS. The highest point on the potential energy surface (PES) is the TS for the isomerization to the Ru(IV) intermediate, which prepares the catalyst geometry for the C?C coupling step. Inclusion of dispersion corrections significantly lowers the height of the overall activation barrier. The actual bond cleavage and bond forming processes are associated to low activation barriers because of the presence of hydrogen atoms around the Ru center. They act as redox buffers through formation and breaking of H?H bonds in the coordination sphere. This flexibility allows optimal repartition of the various ligands according to the change in stereoelectronic demands along the catalytic cycle.     

Synthesis and reactivity of silylated tetrathiafulvalenes

Novel organosilylated tetrathiafulvalenes (TTFs) possessing Si-H or Si-Si bonds have been synthesised. The crystal structures of several derivatives have been determined by X-ray diffraction, including that of dimeric (Si(2)Me(4))(TTF)(2) () incorporating a diatomic SiMe(2)-SiMe(2) linker. Cyclic voltammetry measurements in all cases show two oxidation waves. DFT calculations were performed to rationalize the absence of an electronic communication between the two TTF moieties of through the disilanyl spacer. The reactivity of the Si-H bond has been exploited to prepare the dinuclear complex [{Ru(CO)(4)}(2){mu-(Me(2)Si)(4)TTF}] (), starting from Ru(3)(CO)(12) and TTF(SiMe(2)H)(4) (). Treatment of with 2 equiv. of PPh(3) or dppm results in selective substitution of a CO ligand trans to a SiMe(2) group to afford mer-[{Ru(PPh(3))(CO)(3)}(2){mu-(Me(2)Si)(4)TTF}] () and mer-[{Ru(CO)(3)}(2)(eta(1)-dppm){mu-(Me(2)Si)(4)TTF}] (). Attempts to transform the Si-H bonds of some TTF(SiMe(2)H)(n) (n = 1, 2) into Si-O functions using stoichiometric amounts of water in the presence of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) were unsuccessful. Quantitative cleavage of the C(TTF)-Si bond was observed instead of formation of TTF-based-siloxanes. Essays of catalytic bis-silylation of phenylacetylene with and TTF(SiMe(2)-SiMe(3)) () in the presence of Pd(OAc)(2)/1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutylisocyanide failed. Again, cleavage of the C(TTF)-Si bond was noticed.     

Mechanism for the cyclotrimerization of alkynes and related reactions catalyzed by CpRuCl

A complete catalytic cycle for the cyclotrimerization of acetylene with the CpRuCl fragment has been proposed and discussed based on DFT/B3LYP calculations, which revealed a couple of uncommon intermediates. The first is a metallacyclopentatriene complex RuCp(Cl)(C(4)H(4)) (B), generated through oxidative coupling of two alkyne ligands. It adds another alkyne in eta(2) fashion to give an alkyne complex (C). No less than three successive intermediates could be located for the subsequent arene formation. The first, an unusual five- and four-membered bicyclic ring system (D), rearranges to a very unsymmetrical metallaheptatetraene complex (E), which in turn provides CpRuCl(eta(2)-C(6)H(6)) (F) via a reductive elimination step. The asymmetry of E, including Cp ring slippage, removes the symmetry-forbidden character from this final step. Completion of the cycle is achieved by an exothermic displacement (21.4 kcal mol(-)(1)) of the arene by two acetylene molecules regenerating A. In addition to acetylene, the reaction of B with ethylene and carbon disulfide, the latter taken as a model for a molecule lacking hydrogen atoms, has also been investigated, and several parallels noted. In the case of the coordinated alkene, facile C-C coupling to the alpha carbon of the metallacycle is feasible due to an agostic assistance, which tends to counterbalance the reduced degree of unsaturation. Carbon disulfide, on the other hand, does not coordinate to ruthenium, but a C=S bond adds instead directly to the Ru=C bond. The final products of the reactions of B with acetylene, ethylene, and carbon disulfide are, respectively, benzene, cyclohexadiene, and thiopyrane-2-thione, the activation energies being lower for acetylene.
