Highly Active Copper‐Network Catalyst for the Direct Aldol Reaction

The development of a highly active solid‐phase catechol–copper network catalyst for direct aldol reaction is described. The catalyst was prepared from an alkyl‐chain‐linked bis(catechol) and a copper(II) complex. The direct aldol reaction between carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) and methyl isocyanoacetate was carried out using 0.1–1 mol % [Cu] catalyst to give the corresponding oxazolines at yields of up to 99 % and a trans/cis ratio of >99:1. The catalyst was reused with no loss of catalytic activity. A plausible reaction pathway is also described.     

Modulating catalytic activity of polymer‐based cuAAC “click” reactions

The copper(I)‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction is used to synthesize complex polymer architectures. In this work, we demonstrate the control of this reaction at 25 °C between polystyrene (PSTY) chains through modulating the catalytic activity by varying the combinations of copper source (i.e., Cu(I)Br or copper wire), ligand (PMDETA and/or triazole ligand), and solvent (toluene or DMF). The fastest rate of CuAAC was found using Cu(I)Br/PMDETA ligand in toluene, reaching near full conversion after 15 min at 25 °C. For the same catalysts system, DMF also gave fast rates of “click” (95% conversion in 25 min). Cu(0) wire in toluene gave a conversion of 98% after 600 min, a much higher rate than that observed for the same catalyst system used in DMF. When the PSTY had a chemically bound triazole ring close to the site of reaction, the rate of CuAAC in toluene increased significantly, 97% in 180 min at 25 °C, in agreement with our previously published results. This suggests that rapid rates can be obtained using copper wire and will have direct applications to the synthesis of compound where air, removal of copper, and reuse of the copper catalyst are required. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Unexpected Side Reaction in the Intermolecular N-H Insertion of Phenyl Diazoacetates with Arylamines

Unexpected side reaction is discovered from the N-H insertion of phenyl diazoacetates with arylamines in the presence of Rh2(OAc)4 catalyst. This side reaction is not evident with copper catalysts such as Cu(acac)2 or Cu(OTf)2. Good yield of the N-H insertion was obtained by using 0.2% of copper catalyst.     

Evaluation of hexaniobate nanoscrolls as support for immobilization of a copper complex catalyst

In this work, we report the intercalation properties of the hexaniobate nanoscrolls toward insertion of 2-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethylimino-1-ethyl]pyridine-imidazole copper(II), [Cu(apip)imH]2+, a cationic complex able to promote the catalytic oxidation of organic substrates. Hexaniobate was first transformed into its acidic phase, H2K2Nb6O17, and then exfoliated with n-butylamine in water. The copper complex was immobilized into the nanoscrolls obtained by the acidification of delaminated particle dispersion at pH 3. TEM micrographs of particles after immobilization of the cationic complex show scrolls with external diameters of ca. 25-30 nm and wall thicknesses of about 4.5-7.0 nm. The basal spacing (d(040)) of the copper complex intercalated in hexaniobate is about 11.6 A. The estimated composition, [Cu(apip)imH](0.5)HK2Nb6O17.6H2O, indicates that 50% of the negative charge of interlayer I was neutralized by the copper complex. EPR and IR spectra showed that the ligands and the distorted tetragonal structure of the complex were maintained after immobilization into niobate. The reactivity of this new material toward catechol oxidation using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing agent was investigated and compared to the activity of the same complex in solution. The heterogeneous catalyst is initially less effective toward the catechol oxidation but with time, the reaction shows a higher catechol conversion (ca. 82%) than the same copper complex in homogeneous media (ca. 75%). A better reactivity of the heterogeneous catalyst may be related to the stabilization of the immobilized catalyst, preventing its degradation during the reaction course. EPR results show that the kinetics of formation of the DMPO/*OH adduct in homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions corresponds to that observed in the catechol oxidation, suggesting that hydroxyl radicals are involved in the reaction mechanism.

Identification and characterization of monoanionic tripodal tetradentate ligand complexes of copper(I) and copper(II) involved in halogen atom transfer reactions

The copper(I) complex of bis-(2-(2-pyridyl)-ethyl)-(2-(N-p-toluenesulfonamido)-ethyl)amine (PETAEA), a monoanionic, tripodal tetradentate ligand, was prepared, characterized, and shown to be an effective catalyst for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). A model atom transfer reaction of Cu(PETAEA) with 1-phenylethyl bromide and TEMPO radical trapping agent was studied. The copper(II) complex formed in this reaction was identified by comparison of its spectroscopic data with that of Cu(PETAEA)Br prepared by an independent synthesis. Kinetic and spectroscopic data indicated that the reaction mechanism involved simple atom transfer from the alkyl halide to the Cu(PETAEA) to form the Cu(PETAEA)Br, and no other intermediates were involved. The solid-state structures of the copper(I) and (II) complexes appeared to be maintained in solution, so this system is an atom transfer reaction in which all of the reactive species are identified and characterized.

Liquid-phase catalytic oxidation of organic substrates by a recyclable polymer-supported copper(II) complex

Chloromethylated polystyrene beads cross-linked with 6.5 % divinylbenzene were functionalized with 2-(2′-pyridyl) benzimidazole (PBIMH) and on subsequent treatment with Cu(OAc)₂ in methanol gave a polymer-supported diacetatobis(2-pyridylbenzimidazole)copper(II) complex [PS-(PBIM)₂Cu(II)], which was characterized by physicochemical techniques. The supported complex showed excellent catalytic activity toward the oxidation of industrially important organic compounds such as phenol, benzyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, styrene, and ethylbenzene. An effective catalytic protocol was developed by varying reaction parameters such as the catalyst and substrate concentrations, reaction time, temperature, and substrate-to-oxidant ratio to obtain maximum selectivity with high yields of products. Possible reaction mechanisms were worked out. The catalyst could be recycled five times without any metal leaching or much loss in activity. This catalyst is truly heterogeneous and allows for easy work up, as well as recyclability and excellent product yields under mild conditions.     

Amphiphilic self-assembled polymeric copper catalyst to parts per million levels: click chemistry

Self-assembly of copper sulfate and a poly(imidazole-acrylamide) amphiphile provided a highly active, reusable, globular, solid-phase catalyst for click chemistry. The self-assembled polymeric Cu catalyst was readily prepared from poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N-vinylimidazole) and CuSO(4) via coordinative convolution. The surface of the catalyst was covered with globular particles tens of nanometers in diameter, and those sheetlike composites were layered to build an aggregated structure. Moreover, the imidazole units in the polymeric ligand coordinate to CuSO(4) to give a self-assembled, layered, polymeric copper complex. The insoluble amphiphilic polymeric imidazole Cu catalyst with even 4.5-45 mol ppm drove the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a variety of alkynes and organic azides, including the three-component cyclization of a variety of alkynes, organic halides, and sodium azide. The catalytic turnover number and frequency were up to 209000 and 6740 h(-1), respectively. The catalyst was readily reused without loss of catalytic activity to give the corresponding triazoles quantitatively.     

Copper(I)-mediated radical polymerization of methacrylates in aqueous solution

α-Methoxypolyethylene oxide methacrylate was polymerized by copper(I)-mediated living radical polymerization in aqueous solution to give polymers with controlled number-average molecular masses and narrow polydispersities. When equimolar quantities of initiator with respect to copper(I) bromide were used, the reaction was extremely fast with quantitative conversion achieved in less than 5 min at ambient temperature. However, the molecular weight distribution was broad, and control over the number-average molecular weight (M_n) growth was extremely poor; this is ascribed to an increase in termination because of the increased rate as a result of the coordination of water at the copper center. The complex formed between copper(I) bromide and N-(n-propyl)-2-pyridylmethanimine, bis[N-(n-propyl)-2-pyridylmethanimine]copper(I), was demonstrated to be stable in aqueous solution by ¹H NMR over 10 h at 25 °C. However, on increasing the temperature to 50 °C, decomposition occurred rapidly. Thus, polymerization temperatures were maintained at ambient temperature. When longer alkyl chains were utilized in the ligand, that is, pentyl and octyl, the complex acted as a surfactant leading to heterogeneous solutions. When the catalyst concentration was reduced by two orders of magnitude, the rate of polymerization was reduced with 100% conversion achieved after 60 min with the M_n of the final product being higher than that predicted and the polydispersity equal to 1.43. Copper(II) was added as an inhibitor to circumvent these problems. When 10% of Cu(I) was replaced by Cu(II) {[Cu(I)] + [Cu(II)]/[I] = 1/100}, the mass distribution showed a bimodal distribution, and the rate of polymerization decreased significantly. With a catalyst composition [Cu(I)]/[Cu(II)] = 0.5/0.5 {[Cu(I)] + [Cu(II)]}/[I] = 1/100, polymerization proceeded slowly with 80% conversion reached after 22 h. Thus, the concentration of Cu(I) was further reduced with [Cu(I)]/[Cu(II)] = 10/90, {[Cu(I)] + [Cu(II)]}/[I] = 1/100. The system then contained [Initiator]/[Cu(I)] = 1000/1 and [I]/[Cu(II)] = 1000/9. Under these conditions, the reaction reached 50% after 5 h with the polymer having both an M_n close to the theoretical value and a narrow polydispersity of PDi = 1.15. Optimum results were obtained by increasing the amount of catalyst. When a ratio of [Cu(I)]/[Cu(II)] = 10/90 with a ratio of [Cu]/[I] = 1/1, a conversion of 100% was achieved after less than 20 h, leading to a product having M_n = 8500 and PDi = 1.15. Decreasing the amount of Cu(II) relative to Cu(I) to [Cu(I)]/[Cu(II)] = 0.5/0.5 (maintaining the overall amount of copper) led to 100% conversion after 75 min: M_n = 9500, PDi = 1.10. Block copolymers have been demonstrated by sequential monomer addition with excellent control over M_n and PDi. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 39: 1696–1707, 2001

Heterogeneous copper‐catalyzed oxidative coupling of oxime acetates with sodium sulfinates: An efficient and practical synthesis of β‐keto sulfones

An efficient and practical route to β‐keto sulfones has been developed through heterogeneous oxidative coupling of oxime acetates with sodium sulfinates by using an MCM‐41‐supported Schiff base‐pyridine bidentate copper (II) complex [MCM‐41‐Sb,Py‐Cu (OAc)₂] as the catalyst and oxime acetates as an internal oxidant, followed by hydrolysis. The reaction generates a variety of β‐keto sulfones in good to excellent yields. This new heterogeneous copper (II) catalyst can be easily prepared via a simple procedure from readily available and inexpensive reagents and exhibits the same catalytic activity as Cu (OAc)₂. MCM‐41‐Sb,Py‐Cu (OAc)₂ is also easy to recover and is recyclable up to eight times with almost consistent activity.     

Efficient oxidative coupling of 2,6-disubstituted phenol catalyzed by a dicopper(II) complex

Complexation of a rigid multi-pyridine ligand bis(2-pyridyl)-1,8-naphthyridine (bpnp) with [Cu(2)(TFA)(4)] (TFA = trifluoroacetate) resulted in the formation of a dinuclear copper(II) complex, namely [Cu(2)(bpnp)(μ-OH)(TFA)(3)] (1). This complex has been characterized by X-ray crystallographic, spectroscopic and elemental analyses. Complex 1 is an efficient catalyst for the oxidative coupling of various 2,6-disubstituted phenols with molecular oxygen. Yields and selectivity depend on the reaction conditions employed, the best results being obtained in isopropanol or dioxane at 90 °C with yields of >99%. Mechanistic pathway of the catalysis is discussed.     

Investigation of Metal State in Metal-containing Zeolite Catalysts by DTA and ESR Methods

Thermal stability and its influence on the catalytic activity in CO oxidation of Cu, Pd and Pd-Cu zeolite systems were investigated. The increasing of catalytic activity in the first cycle of reaction is connected with the thermal decomposition of complexions and consequently with the changing of metal state in catalyst in the case of Cu/ZSM-5catalyst. This activity does not relate to initial zeolite with complex ions, but to the metal ions with the decreasing ligands number in the coordination sphere of metal ion. According to the EPR spectrum the copper ions form clusters in zeolite channels due to the spin changed interaction. It was established ESR method that 1.8% Cu/ZSM-5 catalyst in a reduced form has copper (I and II) ions by. The Pd/ZSM-5 catalysts with different metal content have high catalytic activity below the temperature decomposition in contrary to Cu-containing zeolites. On the one hand, it may be connected with the partial reduction of Pd ions during CO oxidation and, on the other hand, with the ability of Pd ions to form the respective label complexes with reagents as additional ligands. The same character of relation between thermal stability and catalytic activity for Pd-Cu/ZSM-5 catalyst was observed. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

稀土掺杂改性对Cu/ZnAl水滑石衍生催化剂甲醇水蒸气重整制氢性能的影响

Bifunctionality of Cu/ZnO catalysts for alcohol-assisted low-temperature methanol synthesis from syngas:Effect of copper content

Alcohol-assisted low-temperature methanol synthesis was conducted over Cu/ZnO_X catalysts while varying the copper content(X). Unlike conventional methanol synthesis, ethanol acted as both solvent and reaction intermediate in this reaction, creating a different reaction pathway. The formation of crystalline phases and characteristic morphology of the co-precipitated precursors during the co-precipitation step were important factors in obtaining an efficient Cu/ZnO catalyst with a high dispersion of metallic copper,which is one of the main active sites for methanol synthesis. The acidic properties of the Cu/ZnO catalyst were also revealed as important factors, since alcohol esterification is considered the rate-limiting step in alcohol-assisted low-temperature methanol synthesis. As a consequence, bifunctionality of the Cu/ZnO catalyst such as metallic copper and acidic properties was required for this reaction. In this respect, the copper content(X) strongly affected the catalytic activity of the Cu/ZnO_X catalysts, and accordingly, the Cu/ZnO_0.5 catalyst with a high copper dispersion and sufficient acid sites exhibited the best catalytic performance in this reaction.
