Rhodium cluster complexes containing bridging phenylgermanium ligands

The reaction of Rh(4)(CO)(12) with Ph(3)GeH at 97 degrees C has yielded the first rhodium cluster complexes containing bridging germylene and germylyne ligands: Rh(8)(CO)(12)(mu(4)-GePh)(6), 9, and Rh(3)(CO)(5)(GePh(3))(mu-GePh(2))(3)(mu(3)-GePh)(mu-H), 10. When the reaction is performed under hydrogen, the yield of 9 is increased to 42% and no 10 is formed. Compound 9 contains a cluster of eight rhodium atoms arranged in the form of a distorted cube. There are six mu(4)-GePh groups bridging each face of this distorted cube. Four of the rhodium atoms have two terminal carbonyl ligands, while the remaining four rhodium atoms have only one carbonyl ligand. Compound 10 contains a triangular cluster of three rhodium atoms with one terminal GePh(3) ligand, three bridging GePh(2) ligands, and one triply bridging GePh ligand. There is also one hydrido ligand that is believed to bridge one of the Rh-Ge bonds. Compound 9 reacted with PPhMe(2) at 25 degrees C to give the tetraphosphine derivative Rh(8)(CO)(8)(PPhMe(2))(4)(mu(4)-GePh)(6), 11. The structure of 11 is similar to 9 except that a PPhMe(2) ligand has replaced a carbonyl ligand on each the four Rh(CO)(2) groups. Compound 10 reacted with CO at 68 degrees C to give the complex Rh(3)(CO)(6)(mu-GePh(2))(3)(mu(3)-GePh), 12. Compound 12 is formed by the loss of the hydrido ligand and the terminal GePh(3) ligand from 10 and the addition of one carbonyl ligand. All compounds were fully characterized by IR, NMR, elemental, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.     

Room temperature asymmetric Pd-catalyzed methoxycarbonylation of norbornene: highly selective catalysis and HP-NMR studies

Palladium complexes bearing monodentate and bidentate phosphine ligands (1-7) were synthesised and used as catalyst precursors in the methoxycarbonylation of norbornene. The catalytic systems bearing ligands 1, 3 and 4 afforded excellent conversions (>99%) and selectivity of the ester (>99%). NMR investigations showed that using complex 1a as the precursor resulted in the protonated phosphine, 1-H(+), being formed under catalytic conditions and thus the addition of acid is not required for the activation of this system since the reaction involving the precursor with methanol under CO pressure produces 2 equivalents of HCl and leads to the formation of the active species. The protonation of ligand 4 under methoxycarbonylation conditions was also observed and the diprotonated diphosphine was isolated and characterised. This compound was tested as a ligand and acid source in a catalysis and provided excellent conversion and high selectivity to the ester.

Enantioselective tandem michael addition/H2-hydrogenation catalyzed by ruthenium hydride borohydride complexes containing beta-aminophosphine ligands

A variety of ruthenium(II) catalyst precursors containing beta-aminophosphine ligands and a borohydride ligand were found to be active for a one-pot, tandem asymmetric Michael addition/H2-hydrogenation reaction to give the chiral alcohol in excellent diastereomeric excess. The most effective catalyst is 4b, containing the (S)-binap ligand and (R,R)-Pnor ligand, derived from (1S,2R)-norephedrine.     

Enantioselective addition of vinylzinc reagents to aldehydes catalyzed by modular ligands derived from amino acids

[reaction: see text] A series of N-acylethylenediamine-based ligands were synthesized from Boc-protected amino acids. The ligands were screened for the ability to catalyze the asymmetric addition of vinylzinc reagents to aldehydes. Three sites of diversity on the ligands were optimized for this reaction using a positional scanning approach. The optimized ligand 3d was found to catalyze the formation of 15 different (E)-allylic alcohols with enantioselectivities that ranged from 52 to 91% ee and yields that ranged from 40 to 90%. This ligand was especially effective for the reaction of aromatic aldehydes with vinylzinc reagents derived from bulky terminal alkynes. Ligand 3d catalyzed the addition of (E)-(3,3-dimethylbut-1-enyl)(ethyl)zinc to 2-naphthaldehyde to give (R,E)-4,4-dimethyl-1-(naphthalene-1-yl)pent-2-en-1-ol in 89% ee. The ee of this product could be increased to 97% through a single recrystallization.     

Weak carbon-hydrogen-nitrogen interactions affect the heterocyclic ligand bonding modes in barium complexes containing eta2-tetrazolato and eta2-pentazolato ligands

Treatment of Ba[N(SiMe3)2]2(THF)2 with 2 equiv of dimethylaminotetrazole or diisopropylaminotetrazole and 1 equiv of 18-crown-6 afforded Ba[CN4(NMe2)]2(18-crown-6) (87%) and Ba[CN4(NiPr2)]2(18-crown-6) (79%) as colorless crystalline solids. Ba[CN4(NMe2)]2(18-crown-6) contains two 1,2-eta2-tetrazolato ligands and one eta6-18-crown-6 ligand. The molecular structure of Ba[CN4(NiPr2)]2(18-crown-6) is similar to that of Ba[CN4(NMe2)]2(18-crown-6), except that the tetrazolato ligands exhibit the isomeric 2,3-eta2-coordination mode and the tetrazolato ligand CN4 cores are bent significantly toward the 18-crown-6 ligands. Molecular orbital calculations were carried out on the model complexes Ba(azolate)2(18-crown-6) (azolate = 1,2-eta2-CHN4, 2,3-eta2-CHN4, and eta2-N5) and demonstrate that the ligand coordination modes are influenced by intramolecular interactions between filled nitrogen orbitals on the azolato ligands and empty C-H sigma* orbitals on the 18-crown-6 ligands.     

Highly enantioselective conjugate additions of potassium organotrifluoroborates to enones by use of monodentate phosphoramidite ligands

The use of phosphoramidite ligands in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition of potassium organotrifluoroborates to various enones in the absence of water is described. A systematic search for effective catalysts has been performed by use of high-throughput screening methods. Initially, we have screened reaction conditions, catalyst precursors, and focused ligand libraries. In the next stage we have used the monodentate ligand combination approach, and finally we have made a library of 96 different phosphoramidites by parallel synthesis in the robot (instant ligand libraries) and have tested these in the vinylation of cyclohexenone (up to 88% enantiomeric excess, ee) and 4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one (up to 42% ee). Arylation of cyclohexenone by use of potassium phenyltrifluoroborate gave 3-phenylcyclohexanone with 99% ee.     

High-nuclearity iridium carbonyl clusters containing phenylgermyl ligands: synthesis, structures, and reactivity

The reaction of Ir4(CO)12 with Ph3GeH at 97 degrees C has yielded the new tetrairidium cluster complexes Ir4(CO)7(GePh3)(mu-GePh2)2[mu3-eta3-GePh(C6H4)](mu-H)2 (10) and Ir4(CO)8(GePh3)2(mu-GePh2)4 (11). The structure of 10 consists of a tetrahedral Ir4 cluster with seven terminal CO groups, two bridging GePh2) ligands, an ortho-metallated bridging mu3-eta3-GePh(C6H4) group, a terminal GePh3 ligand, and two bridging hydrido ligands. Compound 11 consists of a planar butterfly arrangement of four iridium atoms with four bridging GePh2 and two terminal GePh3 ligands. The same reaction at 125 degrees C yielded the two new triiridium clusters Ir3(CO)5(GePh3)(mu-GePh2)3(mu3-GePh)(mu-H) (12) and Ir3(CO)6(GePh3)3(mu-GePh2)3 (13). Compound 12 contains a triangular Ir3 cluster with three bridging GePh2), one triply bridging GePh, and one terminal GePh3 ligand. The compound also contains a hydrido ligand that bridges one of the Ir-Ge bonds. Compound 13 contains a triangular Ir3 cluster with three bridging GePh2 and three terminal GePh3 ligands. At 151 degrees C, an additional complex, Ir4H4(CO)4(mu-GePh2)4(mu4-GePh)2 (14), was isolated. Compound 14 consists of an Ir4 square with four bridging GePh2, two quadruply bridging GePh groups, and four terminal hydrido ligands. Compound 12 reacts with CO at 125 degrees C to give the compound Ir3(CO)6(mu-GePh2)3(mu3-GePh) (15). Compound 15 is formed via the loss of the hydrido ligand and the terminal GePh3 ligand and the addition of one carbonyl ligand to 12. All compounds were fully characterized by IR, NMR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and elemental analysis.     

Bifunctional pyridyl alcohols with the bicyclo[3.3.0]octane scaffold in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes

Some new pyridyl alcohols with the cis-bicyclo[3.3.0]octane scaffold were synthesized and used as chiral ligands for the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Ligands 4 were found to be far superior to the C₂-symmetric ligands 2 in terms of enantioselectivities. Quantitative yields and enantiomeric excesses of up to 92% were obtained when the ligand 4 was used. The carbonyl function in 4 proved to be beneficial for the high enantioselectivities in the addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes. Conversion of the carbonyl group into oxime or oxime ether group led to a sort of more active ligands, which catalyzed the same reaction with rate acceleration.     

Discovery of a new efficient chiral ligand for copper-catalyzed enantioselective Michael additions by high-throughput screening of a parallel library

A combinatorial library of 125 chiral Schiff base ligands 5 was synthesized with the use of solution-phase parallel synthesis and solid-phase extraction (SPE) techniques to scavenge excess reagents and reaction by-products and avoid chromatography. The synthetic methodology coupled five N-Boc-protected beta-amino sulfonyl chlorides 1a-e with five different amines 2f-j to give 25 N-Boc sulfonamides 3, which were in turn deprotected and coupled with five salicylaldehydes 4p-t to give 125 ligands 5 in good yields and of sufficient purity to be used in ligand-catalyzed reactions. These ligands were tested in the copper-catalyzed conjugate addition of dialkyl zinc to cyclic and acyclic enones. A multisubstrate high-throughput screening of the library was performed with an equimolar mixture of 2-cyclohexenone and 2-cycloheptenone (9 and 10, respectively, 0.2 mmol total), with 5.5 mol% ligand 5 (0.011 mmol) and 5 mol% Cu(OTf)2 (OTf= OSO2CF3) (0.010 mmol) in 1:1 toluene/ hexane at - 20 degrees C. From the screening of the library, 5bhr was identified as the best ligand, which yielded 3-ethylcyclohexanone (12) and 3-ethylcycloheptanone (13) in 82% and 81% ee, respectively, and complete conversions. Under optimized conditions (2.75 mol% 5bhr, 2.5 mol% copper(i) triflate, toluene as reaction solvent), improved results were obtained for 12 (90% ee, 93% yield) and for 13 (91% ee, 95% yield). Selected ligands 5 were also tested in the addition of Me2Zn to 2-cyclohexenone (9, ee up to 79%), of Et2Zn to 2-cyclopentenone (11, ee up to 80%) and to acyclic enones 16 and 17 (ee up to 50%).     

Proline-based P, N ligands in asymmetric allylation and the Heck reaction.

A series of phosphine-oxazoline ligands based on proline are reported. These ligands are synthesized from commercially available trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline in four steps. The ability of this type of ligand to catalyze allylic alkylation in an asymmetric fashion as well as the asymmetric Heck reaction is reported. The best of these ligands gave a palladium complex, which catalyzed the addition of dimethylmalonate to cyclopentenyl acetate in excellent yield and up to 96% ee. This same system catalyzed the Heck reaction between dihydrofuran and cyclohexene in up to 86% ee. These ligands appear to differ from the traditional phosphine-oxazoline ligands in that the stereochemistry of the stereogenic carbon next to the oxazoline is not necessarily the dominant chiral center in the induction of selectivity.     

Solid-phase development of chiral phosphoramidite ligands for enantioselective conjugate addition reactions

The development of a method for the optimization of chiral ligands for the steric steering of enantioselective Cu-catalyzed conjugate additions of Znalkyls to enones is described. The method is based on combinatorial principles and solid-phase techniques. It includes the combinatorial synthesis of chiral bispidine-derived ligands embodying a phosphoramidite group on the solid phase and their investigation in immobilized form in the conjugate addition of ZnEt2 to cyclohexenone as test reaction. The best identified ligands were also synthesized separately and investigated in its soluble form. The results obtained for the polymer-bound ligands correctly mirrored the performance of the soluble ligands. The library embodied members giving ee values varying between 3 and 67%. The "positional scanning" approach proved to be invalid for the study of the ligand system, indicating that this approach in general should be applied with care. Taken together, the method allowed for rapid and efficient optimization of the ligands and led to the development of the first enantioselective, Cu-catalyzed conjugate addition reaction with a polymer-bound ligand.     

Simple, efficient catalyst system for the palladium-catalyzed amination of aryl chlorides, bromides, and triflates

Palladium complexes supported by (o-biphenyl)P(t-Bu)(2) (3) or (o-biphenyl)PCy(2) (4) are efficient catalysts for the catalytic amination of a wide variety of aryl halides and triflates. Use of ligand 3 allows for the room-temperature catalytic amination of many aryl chloride, bromide, and triflate substrates, while ligand 4 is effective for the amination of functionalized substrates or reactions of acyclic secondary amines. The catalysts perform well for a large number of different substrate combinations at 80-110 degrees C, including chloropyridines and functionalized aryl halides and triflates using 0.5-1.0 mol % Pd; some reactions proceed efficiently at low catalyst levels (0.05 mol % Pd). These ligands are effective for almost all substrate combinations that have been previously reported with various other ligands, and they represent the most generally effective catalyst system reported to date. Ligands 3 and 4 are air-stable, crystalline solids that are commercially available. Their effectiveness is believed to be due to a combination of steric and electronic properties that promote oxidative addition, Pd-N bond formation, and reductive elimination.     

Photophysical properties and energy transfer pathway of Er(III) complexes with Pt-porphyrin and terpyridine ligands

The photophysical properties of Er(III) complexes coordinated with platinum[5,10,15-triphenyl-20-(4-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrin] (PtP) and terpyridine (tpy) ligands in organic solution were investigated. The Er(III) complex emitted sensitized near-IR (NIR) luminescence when the PtP ligands were excited under deoxygenated conditions. The quantum yield (PhiLn) of the sensitized luminescence was 0.015%, as evaluated from luminescence lifetime. The photophysical studies and theoretical calculations suggest that the F?rster resonance mechanism is very suitable for the energy transfer from PtP to the Er(III) ion and occurred through the first triplet excited state of PtP. The 12.3% energy transfer from the triplet state to the 4F9/2 and 4I9/2 states of Er(III) occurred with a rate distribution of 3.36x10(5) and 6.67x10(4) s(-1), respectively. In addition, the observed triplet quantum yield of the PtP ligand in [Ln(PtP)3(tpy)] proved that the energy transfer from the singlet excited state of the PtP ligand to the Er(III) ion did not take place.     

3,3'-dipyridyl BINOL ligands. Synthesis and application in enantioselective addition of Et2Zn to aldehydes

3,3'-di(2-pyridyl) BINOLs (4), prepared in three steps from commercial substances by a combined directed ortho metalation-Negishi cross-coupling protocol, constitute new members of the BINOL ligand family. They are among the most selective, general ligands, providing equal or greater stereoselectivities in the Et2Zn addition to benzaldehydes and cinnamaldehydes (Table 3) than any single BINOL ligand reported to date.     

Reactivity of Rhodium(I) Complexes Bearing Nitrogen-Containing Ligands toward CH(3)I: Synthesis and Full Characterization of Neutral cis-[RhX(CO)(2)(L)] and Acetyl [RhI(μ-I)(COMe)(CO)(L)](2) Complexes

The neutral rhodium(I) square-planar complexes [RhX(CO)(2)(L)] [X = Cl (3), I (4)] bearing a nitrogen-containing ligand L [diethylamine (a), triethylamine (b), imidazole (c), 1-methylimidazole (d), pyrazole (e), 1-methylpyrazole (f), 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (g)] are straightforwardly obtained from L and [Rh(μ-X)(CO)(2)](2) [X = Cl (1), I (2)] precursors. The synthesis is extended to the diethylsulfide ligand h for 3h and 4h. According to the CO stretching frequency of 3 and 4, the ranking of the electronic density on the rhodium center follows the order b > a ≈ d > c > g > f ≈ h > e. The X-ray molecular structures of 3a, 3d-3f, 4a, and 4d-4f were determined. Results from variable-temperature (1)H and (13)C{(1)H} NMR experiments suggest a fluxional associative ligand exchange for 4c-4h and a supplementary hydrogen-exchange process in 4e and 4g. The oxidative addition reaction of CH(3)I to complexes 4c-4g affords the neutral dimeric iodo-bridged acetylrhodium(III) complexes [RhI(μ-I)(COCH(3))(CO)(L)](2) (6c-6g) in very good isolated yields, whereas 4a gives a mixture of neutral 6a and dianionic [RhI(2)(μ-I)(COCH(3))(CO)][NHMeEt(2)](2) and 4h exclusively provides the analogue dianionic complex with [SMeEt(2)](+) as the counterion. X-ray molecular structures for 6d(2) and 6e reveal that the two apical CO ligands are in mutual cis positions, as are the two apical d and e ligands, whereas isomer 6d(1) is centrosymmetric. Further reactions of 6d and 6e with CO or ligand e gave quantitatively the monomeric complexes [RhI(2)(COCH(3))(CO)(2)(d)] (7d) and [RhI(2)(COCH(3))(CO)(e)(2)] (8e), respectively, as confirmed by their X-ray structures. The initial rate of CH(3)I oxidative addition to 4 as determined by IR monitoring is dependent on the nature of the nitrogen-containing ligand. For 4a and 4h, reaction rates similar to those of the well-known rhodium anionic [RhI(2)(CO)(2)](-) species are observed and are consistent with the formation of this intermediate species through methylation of the a and h ligands. The reaction rates are reduced significantly when using imidazole and pyrazole ligands and involve the direct oxidative addition of CH(3)I to the neutral complexes 4c-4g. Complexes 4c and 4d react around 5-10 times faster than 4e-4g mainly because of electronic effects. The lowest reactivity of 4f toward CH(3)I is attributed to the steric effect of the coordinated ligand, as supported by the X-ray structure.     

Assembled dendritic titanium catalysts for enantioselective hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of aldehydes with Danishefsky's diene

A new type of dendritic 2-amino-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyl (NOBIN)-derived Schiff-base ligands have been synthesized and applied to the titanium-catalyzed hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of Danishefsky's diene with aldehydes. These reactions afforded the corresponding 2-substituted 2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-4-ones in quantitative yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97.2 % ee). The disposition of the dendritic wedges and the dendron size in the ligands were found to have significant impact on the enantioselectivity of the reaction. The recovered dendritic catalyst could be reused without further addition of the Ti source or a carboxylic acid additive for at least three cycles, retaining similar activity and enantioselectivity. The high stability of this type of assembled dendritic titanium catalyst may be attributed to the stabilization effect of large-sized dendron units in the catalyst molecule. The other important phenomenon observed with this catalyst system is that a higher degree of asymmetric amplification has been achieved by attachment of the dendron unit to the chiral ligand, which represents a new advantage of dendrimer catalysts for asymmetric reactions using chiral ligands of lower optical purity.     

Pyroglutamate-derived hydroxyamide ligands: synthesis and application to asymmetric catalysis

The synthesis of a series of chiral hydroxy amide ligands is described. These ligands were used in a ruthenium-catalysed transfer hydrogenation reaction where one ligand gave the product in 72% ee. The ligands were also used in two titanium-catalysed reactions, an alkylation where ee’s of up to 74% were achieved and a phenyl acetylene addition where more modest selectivities were observed.     

New ligands and structural insights into the catalytic asymmetric addition of organozinc reagents to ketones

The catalytic asymmetric addition of alkyl groups to ketones has received considerable attention. Outlined herein is the synthesis of two new ligands based on the C₂-symmetric 11,12-diamino-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene. The scope of the new ligands has been evaluated in the catalytic asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to a variety of ketones. Enantioselectivities as high as 99% have been achieved. The structures of two of these ligands have been determined by X-ray crystallography and are compared with related structures. Additionally, the structure of a titanium complex bound to a bis(sulfonamide) diol ligand is reported.
