Asymmetric Gold‐Catalyzed Lactonizations in Water at Room Temperature

Asymmetric gold‐catalyzed hydrocarboxylations are reported that show broad substrate scope. The hydrophobic effect associated with in situ‐formed aqueous nanomicelles gives good to excellent ee’s of product lactones. In‐flask product isolation, along with the recycling of the catalyst and the reaction medium, are combined to arrive at an especially environmentally friendly process.     

A Sequential Umpolung/Enzymatic Dynamic Kinetic Resolution Strategy for the Synthesis of γ-Lactones

Combining biological and small-molecule catalysts under a chemoenzymatic manifold presents a series of significant advantages to the synthetic community. We report herein the successful development of a two-step/single flask synthesis of γ-lactones through the merger of Umpolung catalysis with a ketoreductase-catalyzed dynamic kinetic resolution, reduction, and cyclization. This combined approach delivers highly enantio- and diastereoenriched heterocycles and demonstrates the feasibility of integrating NHC catalysis with enzymatic processes.

Designed Precursor for the Controlled Synthesis of Highly Active Atomic and Sub‐nanometric Platinum Catalysts on Mesoporous Silica

The development of new methods to synthesize nanometric metal catalysts has always been an important and prerequisite step in advanced catalysis. Herein, we design a stable nitrogen ligated Pt complex for the straightforward synthesis by carbonization of uniformly sized atomic and sub‐nanometric Pt catalysts supported on mesoporous silica. During the carbonization of the Pt precursor into active Pt species, the nitrogen‐containing ligand directed the decomposition in a controlled fashion to maintain uniform sizes of the Pt species. The nitrogen ligand had a key role to stabilize the single Pt atoms on a weak anchoring support like silica. The Pt catalysts exhibited remarkable activities in the hydrogenation of common organic functional groups with turnover frequencies higher than in previous studies. By a simple post‐synthetic treatment, we could selectively remove the Pt nanoparticles to obtain a mixture of single atoms and nanoclusters, extending the applicability of the present method.     

甲烷直接催化氧化制备甲醇近期研究进展北大核心CSCD

甲烷合成甲醇的方法包括间接法和直接催化氧化(DMTM)法,但是间接法对设备要求高,且甲烷转化率与甲醇选择性均不理想,DMTM法可通过一步反应高选择性制备甲醇,有巨大的应用潜力。对于甲烷DMTM法合成甲醇,均相催化体系通常需要特殊反应介质与贵金属催化剂相结合,虽然反应效率高,但对反应设备有腐蚀性,产物不易分离,应用前景差。液相-异相催化一般使用H_(2)O_(2)作为氧化剂,Au、Pd、Fe和Cu等金属元素作为催化剂主要活性组分,·OH是主要的氧化活性物,可在低温下实现甲烷的活化氧化。因此,异相催化体系是目前研究的主流。气相-异相催化主要使用O_(2)和N_(2)O为氧化剂,前者氧化性更强,后者对于产品选择性更好,此外,厌氧体系中H_(2)O也可直接作为氧供体,常用Cu、Fe、Rh等元素作为催化剂。沸石分子筛是使用最广泛的载体,金属氧化物、金属有机骨架化合物(MOFs)和石墨烯也均有涉及,多金属协同催化已经取得了很好的效果。本文主要总结与概述了热催化甲烷直接催化氧化制备甲醇的近年相关研究,并对今后的研究方向做出了展望。     

Two-Metal Ion Catalysis in Enzymatic Acyl- and Phosphoryl-Transfer Reactions

Numerous studies, both in enzymatic and nonenzymatic catalysis, have been undertaken to understand the way by which metal ions, especially zinc ions, promote the hydrolysis of phosphate ester and amide bonds. Hydrolases containing one metal ion in the active site, termed mononuclear metallohydrolases, such as carboxypeptidase. A and thermolysin were among the first enzymes to have their structures unraveled by X-ray crystallography. In recent years an increasing number of metalloenzymes have been identified that use two or more adjacent metal ions in the catalysis of phosphoryl-transfer reactions (R-OPO₃ + R′-OH → R′-OPO₃ + R-OH; in the case of the phosphatase reaction R′-OH is a water molecule) and carbonyl-transfer reactions, for example, in peptidases or other amidases. These dinuclear metalloenzymes catalyze a great variety of these reactions, including hydrolytic cleavage of phosphomono-, -di- and -triester bonds, phosphoanhydride bonds as well as of peptide bonds or urea. In addition, the formation of the phosphodiester bond of RNA and DNA by polymerases is catalyzed by a two-metal ion mechanism. A remarkable diversity is also seen in the structures of the active sites of these di- and trinuclear metalloenzymes, even for enzymes that catalyze very similar reactions. The determination of the structure of a substrate, product, stable intermediate, or a reaction coordinate analogue compound bound to an active or inactivated enzyme is a powerful approach to investigate mechanistic details of enzyme action. Such studies have been applied to several of the metalloenzymes reviewed in this article; together with many other biochemical studies they provide a growing body of information on how the two (or more) metal ions cooperate to achieve efficient catalysis.     

Asymmetric Synthesis of Multi-Substituted Tetrahydrofurans via Palladium/Rhodium Synergistic Catalyzed [3+2] Decarboxylative Cycloaddition of Vinylethylene Carbonates

Unlike the comprehensive development of tandem multi-metallic catalysis, bimetallic synergistic catalysis has been challenging to achieve high stereoselectivity with the generation of multi-stereogenic centers. Herein, an efficient synergistic catalysis for the diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of multi-substituted tetrahydrofuran derivatives has been developed. Under mild reaction conditions, a series of target molecules with three consecutive stereocenters were synthesized by a palladium(0)/rhodium(III) bimetal-catalyzed asymmetric decarboxylative [3+2]-cycloaddition of vinylethylene carbonates with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The corresponding adducts were obtained with moderate to high yields (67 %∼98 %) and excellent stereoselectivities (>20 : 1 d.r., up to 99 % ee).     

Asymmetric Synthesis of Bicyclic Diol Derivatives through Metal and Enzyme Catalysis: Application to the Formal Synthesis of Sertraline

Enzyme‐ and ruthenium‐catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation (DYKAT) of bicyclic diols to their diacetates was highly enantio‐ and diastereoselective to give the corresponding diacetates in high yield with high enantioselectivity (99.9 % ee). The enantiomerically pure diols are accessible by simple hydrolysis (NaOH, MeOH), but an alternative enzyme‐catalyzed ester cleavage was also used to give the trans‐diol (R,R)‐ 1 b in extremely high diastereomeric purity (trans/cis=99.9:0.1, >99.9 % ee). It was demonstrated that the diols can be selectively oxidized to the ketoalcohols in a ruthenium‐catalyzed Oppenauer‐type reaction. A formal enantioselective synthesis of sertraline from a simple racemic cis/trans diol 1 b was demonstrated.     

Multiple catalysis with two chiral units: an additional dimension for asymmetric synthesis

This Minireview focuses on asymmetric reactions mediated by two distinct chiral catalysts (chiral multiple catalysis). Initially, this approach appears unconventional, but indeed it allows a fast multidimensional optimization and fine-tuning of the catalytic system required to perform a given transformation. Herein, this emerging concept is presented and its potential applications are highlighted.     

Stereoconvergent,Redox‐Neutral Access to Tetrahydroquinoxalines through Relay Epoxide Opening/Amination of Alcohols

We present an economical catalytic procedure to convert readily available 1,2‐diaminobenzenes and terminal epoxides into valuable 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoxalines in a highly enantioselective fashion. This procedure operates through relay zinc and iridium catalysis, and achieves redox‐neutral and stereoconvergent production of valuable chiral heterocycles from racemic starting materials with water as the only side product. The use of commercially available reagents and catalysts and a convenient procedure also make this catalytic method attractive for practical application.     

Reactions in Water Involving the “On-Water” Mechanism

Ever-evolving catalyst advances in synthetic protocols using water as a reaction medium have enriched the understanding of sustainable organic chemistry. Because conventional classification and definitions were ambivalent, it is proposed here that catalytic reactions using water be collectively called to be “in water”, with further classification into seven types. When accelerated in water as heterogeneous mixtures, the reactions can be regarded as following an “on-water” mechanism. The original term “on water” coined by Sharpless is incongruous with catalytic reactions, whereas on-water used in this review covers all the interfaces involving water where chemical reactions are accelerated. As a result of the unconcluded dispute on the antiquated catalyst-free “on water” model, the modified model defines three water layers: water molecules that are oriented to extrude protons toward the oil phase in the inner layer, those enwrapped by a secondary layer, and finally the bulk water layer. In light of the latitudinous outlook on the role of water at the interface, selected examples of reactions, in particular those reported over the past decade, that follow an “on-water” mechanism are reviewed herein.
