Quinone transfer radical polymerization (QTRP) of styrene: Catalysis by different metal complexes

Styrene has been polymerized by a Quinone Transfer Radical Polymerization (QTRP) based on the redox reaction of an ortho‐quinone and a metal catalyst. Several metal acetylacetonates have been tested in this work. The radical polymerization of styrene is largely controlled when phenanthrenequinone (PhQ) is used with catalytic amounts of Co(acac)₂, Ni(acac)₂, Mn(acac)_{2 or 3}, and Al(acac)₃. As a rule, in the presence of all these metallic complexes, the polystyrene molar mass increases with the monomer conversion, and polydispersity (M_w/M_n) is in the 1.3–1.6 range (at least until 40% monomer conversion). Styrene polymerization has also been resumed by polystyrene chains prepared by QTRP. In the specific case of manganese acetylacetonates, an amine or phosphine ligand has to be added for the control to be effective. Finally, two mechanistic hypotheses have been proposed, depending on whether the oxidation state of the metal can be easily changed or not. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Palladium‐catalyzed three‐component coupling polycondensation of aromatic diiodide,aromatic bis(boronic acid propanediol ester), and norbornadiene: A new route for poly(p‐phenylene vinylene)

A novel synthetic method for soluble precursor polymers of poly(p‐phenylene vinylene) (PPV) derivatives by the palladium‐catalyzed three‐component coupling polycondensation of aromatic diiodides, aromatic bis(boronic acid) derivatives, and norbornadiene is described. For example, the polymerization of 1,4‐diiodo‐2,5‐dioctyloxybenzene, benzene‐1,4‐bis(boronic acid propanediol ester), and norbornadiene at 100 °C for 3 days provided a polymer consisting of the three monomer units in a 97% yield (number‐average molecular weight = 3100, weight‐average molecular weight/number‐average molecular weight = 1.37). A derivative of PPV was produced smoothly by the retro Diels–Alder reaction of the polymer both in a dodecyloxybenzene solution and in a film at 200 °C in vacuo. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Pickering Interfacial Catalysis for Biphasic Systems: From Emulsion Design to Green Reactions

Pickering emulsions are surfactant‐free dispersions of two immiscible fluids that are kinetically stabilized by colloidal particles. For ecological reasons, these systems have undergone a resurgence of interest to mitigate the use of synthetic surfactants and solvents. Moreover, the use of colloidal particles as stabilizers provides emulsions with original properties compared to surfactant‐stabilized emulsions, microemulsions, and micellar systems. Despite these specific advantages, the application of Pickering emulsions to catalysis has been rarely explored. This Minireview describes very recent examples of hybrid and composite amphiphilic materials for the design of interfacial catalysts in Pickering emulsions with special emphasis on their assets and challenges for industrially relevant biphasic reactions in fine chemistry, biofuel upgrading, and depollution.     

Highly Flexible and Tailorable Cobalt-Doped Cross-Linked Polyacrylamide-Based Electrolytes for Use in High-Performance Supercapacitors

A novel hydrogel polymer electrolyte was prepared by incorporation of 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BG) to cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAM). The electrolyte (PAMBG) was modified with cobalt (II) sulfate with various doping ratios (PAMBGCoX) to increase the capacitance by increasing faradaic reactions. The supercapacitor device assembly was performed by using active carbon (AC) electrodes and hydrogel polymer electrolytes. The specific capacitance of the PAMBGCo5 device indicated 130 F g⁻¹, which is at least a seven-fold improvement due to the insertion of Co as a redox component. The electrolyte device, PAMBGCo5, displays superior performance having an energy density of 38 Wh kg⁻¹ at a power density of 500 W kg⁻¹. Additionally, with the same hydrogel, the device performed 10,000 galvanostatic charge-discharge cycles via retaining 91% of the initial capacitance. A cost-effective electrolyte, PAMBGCo5, was tested in a carbon-based supercapacitor under bent and twisted conditions at various angles, confirming the robustness of the device.     

Cross-Linked Polymers as Scaffolds for the Low-Temperature Preparation of Nanostructured Metal Oxides

The current state of the art of the use of cross-linked organic polymers, both insoluble (resins or gels) and soluble (micro- and nanogels), as aids for the low-temperature preparation of stable metal oxide nanoparticles or nanostructured metal oxides is reviewed herein. Synthetic strategies for inorganic oxide nanomaterials of this kind can greatly benefit from the use of cross-linked polymers, which may act as scaffolds/exotemplates during inorganic nanoparticle synthesis, or as stabilizers following post-synthetic modification of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, the peculiar properties of the organic cross-linked polymers add to those of the inorganic oxide nanoparticles, producing materials with combined properties. The potential applications of such highly promising composite nanomaterials will be also briefly sketched.     

Recent Advances in Continuous-Flow Enantioselective Catalysis

The increased demand for more efficient, safe, and green production in fine chemical and pharmaceutical industry calls for the development of continuous-flow manufacturing, and for chiral chemicals in particular, enantioselective catalytic processes. In recent years, this emerging direction has received considerable attention and has seen rapid progress. In most cases, catalytic enantioselective flow processes using homogeneous, heterogeneous, or enzymatic catalysts have shown significant advantages over the conventional batch mode, such as shortened reaction times, lower catalysts loadings, and higher selectivities in addition to the normal merits of non-enantioselective flow operations. In this Minireview, the advancements, key strategies, methods, and technologies developed the last six years as well as remaining challenges are summarized.     

Surface Organometallic Chemistry for Single-site Catalysis and Single-atom Catalysis

Although driven by different research interests, single-site catalysts and single-atom catalysts are both believed to be model systems bridging homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The two concepts are similar but different. In this review, we will first explain the difference between single-atom catalysis and single-site catalysis, in terms of their goals, synthetic methods and coordination structures of corresponding catalysts. Then, we will introduce the surface organometallic chemistry method, a method traditionally used for synthesizing single-site catalyst. We will explain why it might benefit the single-atom catalysis community. At last, the choice of support to accommodate the method for synthesizing single-atom catalysts will be discussed.     

Heterobimetallic Gold/Ruthenium Complexes Synthesized via Post-functionalization and Applied in Dual Photoredox Gold Catalysis

The synthesis of heterobimetallic Au^I/Ru^II complexes of the general formula syn- and anti-[{AuCl}( L1 ∩ L2 ){Ru(bpy)₂}][PF₆]₂ is reported. The ditopic bridging ligand L1 ∩ L2 refers to a P,N hybrid ligand composed of phosphine and bipyridine substructures, which was obtained via a post-functionalization strategy based on Diels-Alder reaction between a phosphole and a maleimide moiety. It was found that the stereochemistry at the phosphorus atom of the resulting 7-phosphanorbornene backbone can be controlled by executing the metal coordination and the cycloaddition reaction in a different order. All precursors, as well as the mono- and multimetallic complexes, were isolated and fully characterized by various spectroscopic methods such as NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopy as well as cyclic voltammetry. Photophysical measurements show efficient phosphorescence for the investigated monometallic complex anti-[( L1 ∩ L2 ){Ru(bpy)₂}][PF₆]₂ and the bimetallic analogue syn-[{AuCl}( L1 ∩ L2 ){Ru(bpy)₂}][PF₆]₂, thus indicating a small influence of the {AuCl} fragment on the photoluminescence properties. The heterobimetallic Au^I/Ru^II complexes syn- and anti-[{AuCl}( L1 ∩ L2 ){Ru(bpy)₂}][PF₆]₂ are both active catalysts in the P-arylation of aryldiazonium salts promoted by visible light with H-phosphonate affording arylphosphonates in yields of up to 91 %. Both dinuclear complexes outperform their monometallic counterparts.     

Preparation of Biomimetic Zwitterionic Core Cross-Linked Nanocarriers for Control Release of Bioactive Agents

Biomimetic core cross-linked nanocarriers (CCL-NCs) with zwitterionic shell was constructed from an amphiphilic block copolymer poly(2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate-co-carboxybetaine)-b-polystyrene ((PDMAEMA-co-PCB)-b-PS) via mini-emulsion RAFT polymerization. CCL-NCs present in this report possess properties of redox-sensitivity, limited unspecific protein adsorptions and low cytotoxicity, which highly enhance their potential application in drug delivery. Morphology of CCL-NCs was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. The control release process has also been investigated under three different conditions with or without dithiothreitol (DTT) at pH 5.4, 6.5 and 7.4.     

Bifunctional Rhenium Complexes for the Catalytic Transfer‐Hydrogenation Reactions of Ketones and Imines

The silyloxycyclopentadienyl hydride complexes [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄OSiMe₂tBu)] (R=iPr ( 3 a ), Cy ( 3 b )) were obtained by the reaction of [Re(H)(Br)(NO)(PR₃)₂] (R=iPr, Cy) with Li[C₅H₄OSiMe₂tBu]. The ligand–metal bifunctional rhenium catalysts [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄OH)] (R=iPr ( 5 a ), Cy ( 5 b )) were prepared from compounds 3 a and 3 b by silyl deprotection with TBAF and subsequent acidification of the intermediate salts [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄O)][NBu₄] (R=iPr ( 4 a ), Cy ( 4 b )) with NH₄Br. In nonpolar solvents, compounds 5 a and 5 b formed an equilibrium with the isomerized trans‐dihydride cyclopentadienone species [Re(H)₂(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄O)] ( 6 a,b ). Deuterium‐labeling studies of compounds 5 a and 5 b with D₂ and D₂O showed H/D exchange at the H_Re and H_O positions. Compounds 5 a and 5 b were active catalysts in the transfer hydrogenation reactions of ketones and imines with 2‐propanol as both the solvent and H₂ source. The mechanism of the transfer hydrogenation and isomerization reactions was supported by DFT calculations, which suggested a secondary‐coordination‐sphere mechanism for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones.

Ruthenium Catalysis in Biological Habitats

Recent years have witnessed a considerable progress in research aimed at merging transition metal catalysis with chemical and cell biology. Therefore, a crescent number of metal-catalyzed transformations have been shown compatible with biological media and even with living settings. Of the different transition metals used to build these biocompatible catalysts, ruthenium has demonstrated to be particularly powerful, in part because the resulting complexes exhibit a very good balance between reactivity and biological stability. Indeed, ruthenium complexes have demonstrated utility to promote a great variety of reactions in biologically relevant contexts, from deprotection and redox processes to cycloadditions or photocatalytic transformations. Many of these reactions may enable the development of new type of biological tools and pharmacological strategies.     

High‐Throughput Screening in Olefin‐Polymerization Catalysis: From Serendipitous Discovery Towards Rational Understanding

High–throughput‐screening (HTS) tools and methods are used more and more, especially in industry, in the search for new, selective organometallic catalysts. In most cases, the approach is, in essence, empirical, and the strategy is to increase the number of experiments that can be run at a given place in a given time. Highly miniaturized, parallel reaction setups have been implemented for the rapid assessment of whether novel catalysts resulting from the structural amplification of a basic framework are “good” or “bad” with respect to the properties of interest, and, depending on the response, worthy of a subsequent, more‐careful evaluation. In this article, we demonstrate that it is possible to utilize these state‐of‐the‐art HTS platforms with a different strategy: the rapid generation of reliable kinetic data for mechanistic studies in view of a thorough understanding and rational catalyst design. Ziegler–Natta‐type catalytic olefin polymerization will be used throughout as an example.
