Quinone Diazides for Olefin Functionalization

The utility of quinone diazides in materials science is vast and well‐documented, yet this potentially useful motif has languished in the annals of organic synthesis. Herein we show that modern tools of catalysis can be employed with free or suitably masked quinone diazides to unleash the power of these classic diazo compounds in the context of both inter‐ and intramolecular olefin cyclopropanation.     

Enantioselective Diamination with Novel Chiral Hypervalent Iodine Catalysts

Vicinal diamines constitute one the most important functional motif in organic chemistry because of its wide occurrence in a variety of biological and pharmaceutical molecules. We report an efficient metal‐free, highly stereoselective intramolecular diamination using a novel chiral hypervalent iodine reagent together with its application as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of diamines.     

Diamination of olefins: synthesis, structures and reactivity of osmaimidazolidines

The diamination of certain olefins bearing electron-withdrawing substituents proceeds with well-defined bisimido and trisimido complexes of osmium. The products are obtained as osmaimidazolidines which are of unprecedented stability with regards to olefin functionalisation. Osmium complexes from related dihydroxylation or aminohydroxylation are significantly less stable and thereby promote catalytic reactions. This difference in reaction profile has been investigated and chiral osmium heterocycles obtained from olefin difunctionalisation were characterised by X-ray analysis for the first time. Kinetic studies on the reaction profile have also been carried out. An asymmetric version of this reaction is based on chiral non-racemic auxiliaries and leads to diastereomerically enriched osmaimidazolidines with up to 90 % de. This sequence represents the first asymmetric diamination of olefins. Attempts on the use of chiral ligands for direct asymmetric diamination as well as the consequences of osmaimidazolidine properties for a catalytic reaction are discussed.     

Transition‐Metal‐Catalyzed Diamination of Olefins

An overview of these methods, including asymmetric versions, is given.

Mechanistic Studies on Photoinduced Catalytic Olefin Migration Reactions at the Pd(II) Centers of a Porous Crystal,Metal-Macrocycle Framework

Porous crystals with well-defined active metal centers on the pore surface have high potential as heterogeneous metal catalysts. We have recently demonstrated that a porous molecular crystal, metal-macrocycle framework (MMF), catalyzes olefin migration reactions by photoactivation of its Pd^IICl₂ moieties exposed on the crystalline channel surface. Herein we report a mechanistic study of the photoinduced olefin migration reactions at the Pd^II active centers of MMF. Several experiments, including a deuterium scrambling study, revealed that olefin migration is catalyzed via an alkyl mechanism by in situ generated Pd−H species on the channel surface during photoirradiation. This proposed mechanism was further supported by DFT and ONIOM calculations.

Block Index for Characterizing Olefin Block Copolymers

Summary: Olefin block copolymers produced by chain shuttling catalysis exhibit crystallinity characteristics that are distinct from what would be expected for typical random olefin copolymers with comparable monomer compositions produced from either ‘single-site’ or heterogeneous catalysis. Olefin block copolymers produced by chain shuttling catalysis have a statistical multiblock architecture. A unique structural feature of olefin-based block copolymers is that the intra-chain distribution of comonomer is segmented (statistically non-random). Fractionating an olefin block copolymer by preparative temperature rising elution fractionation, TREF, results in fractions that have much higher comonomer content than comparable fractions of a random copolymer collected at an equivalent TREF elution temperature. We have developed a “block index” methodology which quantifies the deviation from the expected monomer composition versus the analytical temperature rising elution fractionation, ATREF, elution temperature. When interpreted properly, this index indicates the degree to which the intra-chain comonomer distribution is segmented or blocked. The unique crystallization behavior of block copolymers determine the magnitude of the block index values because the highly crystalline segments along an otherwise non-crystalline chain tend to dominate the ATREF (and DSC) temperature distributions.

Alkaline Earth–Olefin Complexes with Secondary Interactions

Strontium and calcium (alkaline earth: Ae) olefin complexes stabilised by secondary Ae???F?C and β‐agostic Ae???H?Si interactions are presented. Olefin coordination onto the alkaline earths is plain in the solid state, and it is thermodynamically favoured over the coordination of THF. The existence of the Ae???olefin interactions is corroborated by solution NMR data and DFT computations. The coordination mode of the olefin varies with steric effects and, if enforced, olefin dissociation can be compensated by the other non‐covalent interactions, as supported by DFT computations.
