Regioselective palladium-catalyzed synthesis of beta-arylated primary allylamine equivalents by an efficient Pd-N coordination.

A highly regioselective Heck arylation, utilizing aryl triflates and a palladium/dppf catalytic system, can be performed at the internal, beta-carbon of Boc- and phthalimido-protected allylamines, yielding arylated primary allylamine equivalents. The very high regioselectivity obtained with secondary Boc-protected allylamides is suggested to be caused by an efficient coordination between an anionic nitrogen and palladium. Single-mode microwave irradiation has been utilized to shorten the reaction times and, in the case of Boc-protected allylamides, to improve the yields of two electron-poor aryl triflates.

Palladium Biosensor

In this paper we proposed a palladium(II) biosensor. The biosensor is based on determining of interactions between palladium(II) and metallothionein modified hanging mercury drop electrode by means of differential pulse voltammetry. We studied influence of two supporting electrolytes (potassium or sodium chloride) on the signals of the biosensor. Based on the results obtained we found potassium chloride (0.05 M) as the most suitable supporting electrolyte to determine palladium(II). The detection limit of the biosensor for palladium ions was evaluated as 100 nM with RSD about 10%. Moreover, we utilized the biosensor for measurement of the target molecule in the presence of human blood serum and human urine.

A chitosan-supported palladium (Pd) (0) catalyst was prepared by simple adsorption of palladium(II) ion onto chitosan beads and a subsequent reduction process. To maintain mechanical stability, the chitosan-supported palladium(0) catalyst was cross-linked with either glutaraldehyde or diglycidyl ether polyethylene glycol.

In addition, the catalyst was successfully reused up to five times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

Spectrophotometric determination of traces of platinum in palladium with dithizone after matrix precipitation as a compound with ammonia and iodide

Palladium is precipitated with ammonia and iodide; platinum remains in solution and is completely extracted with dithizone in carbon tetrachloride. The precipitated palladium compound is shown to be Pd(NH₃)₂I₂ by thermogravimetry and by determinations of ammonia and iodide. To separate small amounts of palladium from platinum in the dithizone extract, the resistance of platinum dithizonate to oxidizig agents is utilized; platinum dithizonate is converted to an oxidized form which is easily reduced to the initial form. The separation and spectrophotometric procedure enable about 1 × 10^?3% platinum to be quantified in palladium(II) chloride with good precision and accuracy.     

Palladium in the Chemical Synthesis and Modification of Proteins

The field of site‐specific modification of proteins has drawn significant attention in recent years owing to its importance in various research areas such as the development of novel therapeutics and understanding the biochemical and cellular behaviors of proteins. The presence of a large number of reactive functional groups in the protein of interest and in the cellular environment renders modification at a specific site a highly challenging task. With the development of sophisticated chemical methodologies it is now possible to target a specific site of a protein with a desired modification, however, many challenges remain to be solved. In this context, transition metals in particular palladium‐mediated C−C bond‐forming and C−O bond‐cleavage reactions gained great interest owing to the unique catalytic properties of palladium. Palladium chemistry is being explored for protein modifications in vitro, on the cell surface, and within the cell. Very recently, palladium complexes have been applied for the rapid deprotection of several widely utilized cysteine protecting groups as well as in the removal of solubilizing tags to facilitate chemical protein synthesis. This Minireview highlights these advances and how the accumulated knowledge of palladium chemistry for small molecules is being impressively transferred to synthesis and modification of chemical proteins.

Modified analcime loaded with zincon as a useful material for the separation and preconcentration of trace palladium and its determination by third-derivative spectrophotometry

This work assesses the potential of natural analcime zeolite as a sorbent for the preconcentration of palladium. Palladium is quantitatively retained on modified analcime zeolite loaded with zincon using the column method in the pH range from 2.5 to 3.5 at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The palladium complex was removed from the column with 5.0 mL of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and determined by third-derivative spectrophotometry. The detection limit is 0.03 μg/mL (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) in the final solution. Since it is possible to retain 0.15 μg of palladium from 600 mL of solution passing through the column, elution with 5.0 mL of DMSO gives a detection limit of 0.25 ng/mL for palladium in the initial aqueous solution. The calibration curve is linear over the range 0.1 to 5.0 μg/mL of palladium(II) in the final solution with a correlation coefficient of 0.9996. Seven replicated determinations of 5.0 μg of palladium in 5.0 mL dimethylsulfoxide gave a mean d ³ A/dλ³ (peak-to-peak signal between λ₂ = 625 and λ₁ = 654 nm) of 0.64 with a relative standard deviation of 1.2%. The sensitivity of the method (d ³ A/dλ³) is 0.5843 mL/μg of palladium(II) from the slope of the calibration curve. The interference of a large number of anions and cations has been studied and the optimized conditions developed were utilized for the determination of trace palladium in various synthetic and water samples. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Divergent Synthesis of Vinyl‐, Benzyl‐, and Borylsilanes: Aryl to Alkyl 1,5‐Palladium Migration/Coupling Sequences

Organosilicon compounds have been extensively utilized both in industry and academia. Studies on the syntheses of diverse organosilanes is highly appealing. Through‐space metal/hydrogen shifts allow functionalization of C?H bonds at a remote site, which are otherwise difficult to achieve. However, until now, an aryl to alkyl 1,5‐palladium migration process seems to have not been presented. Reported herein is the remote olefination, arylation, and borylation of a methyl group on silicon to access diverse vinyl‐, benzyl‐, and borylsilanes, constituting a unique C(sp³)?H transformation based on a 1,5‐palladium migration process.     

Living Carbocationic Polymerization. VII. Living Polymerization of Isobutylene by Tertiary Alkyl (or Aryl) Methyl Ether/Boron Trichloride Complexes

Abstract

Colloidal palladium supported on a chelate resin containing iminodiacetic acid groups was prepared by refluxing the palladium chelate resin in methanol-water. Using the resin-supported colloidal palladium as a catalyst, cyclopentadiene was hydrogenated to cyclopentene in 97.1% selectivity at 100% conversion of cyclopentadiene under 1 atm of hydrogen in methanol at 30°C. Finely dispersed metal particles ranging from 10 to 60 Å in diameter were observed in the resin by electron microscopy. Both x-ray microanalysis for palladium and elution analysis of palladium ion with an aqueous solution of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt demonstrated the existence of large amounts of palladium ion complexes in the resin. The amount of palladium metal in the resin was estimated to be about 5% of the total palladium. Since the resin, after removal of most of the ionic palladium, exhibited almost the same catalytic activity as before, it was concluded that the finely dispersed metal particles are the active species in the catalyst.     

Spectrophotometr1c determination of palladium : Bismuthiol i as an analytical reagent

The reagent, bismuthiol l, has been successfully utilized for the spectrophotometric determination of palladium. The colour reaction is instantaneous and the system is stable for at least 24 hours in the pH range 6 to 10 but shows no sharp peak of maximum absorption. The system obeys Beer's law at a palladium concentration of 0.8 μg to 8.0 μg per ml at any wavelength between 400 mμ and and 410 mμ giving a sensitivity of 0.08 μg of palladium per cm² (practical); 0.01 μg of palladium per cm² (sandell). Ethyl alcohol stabilizes the system against any deviation due to appearance of turbidity. A large excess of the reagent and almost all thc cations and anions, except platinum, gold, copper, chromium, iron, mercury, silver, thallium, uranium, vanadate and cyanide, do not interfere. By applying job's method of continuous variation it was found that the complex contains thc reactants in 1 : 1 ratio and that the average value of the dissociation constant of the complex is 3.2$\text{.}\text{?}$ 10^-5 at 25°.
