Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of olefin metathesis has seen considerable growth in the recent past. Some of the earliest milestones in the field include the synthesis of well-defined catalysts based on molybdenum, tungsten, and ruthenium. The efficiencies of these catalysts, however, are limited by their decomposition. Efforts have been made to increase the lifetime of these catalysts by changing the ligand sphere, to stabilize catalytic intermediates. Examples include the employment of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and the chelating (o-isopropoxy)benzylidene ligand seen in the second-generation Grubbs and Hoveyda catalysts. Processes that utilize the olefin metathesis processes, like those in the petroleum industry and large-scale production of chemicals, are bound by the need for high catalyst loadings which translate to high costs. The work herein presents the pursuit of longer-lived olefin metathesis catalysts based on molybdenum and ruthenium. The first goal of this thesis project was to develop a stable molybdenum-based olefin metathesis catalyst supported by a tridentate PONOP ligand and a chelating (o- x methoxy)benzylidene ligand. Previous attempts in our lab employed nonchelating alkylidene initiators - yielding no success in isolation. The rationale behind this design was that a chelating ether moiety will stabilize the molybdenum-center enough to be isolable. Attempts to isolate the chelating molybdenum-alkylidene species were also unsuccessful. Instead, we probed the in-situ ROMP of norbornene using iPrPONOP MoCl3 as a precatalyst and (2-methoxybenzyl)magnesium chloride as a cocatalyst. This cocatalyst did not lend any improvements to the simpler nonchelating Grignard cocatalysts. The synthesis of a novel dialkyl zirconocene complex is also reported. The second and more heavily pursued endeavor was the development of longer-lived ruthenium olefin metathesis catalysts. Specifically, we aimed at improving the second-generation Hoveyda catalyst with the use of a hemilabile tridentate NHC ligand. Two novel catalysts bearing NHC ligands with a hemilabile ethoxy-pyridyl arm were synthesized along with their unique organic frameworks. The catalyst containing the 2,6-diisopropylphenyl group (C1-Me) was investigated more comprehensively because it was more readily prepared. This complex was characterized by high thermal stability under metathesis conditions and remarkable TONs in the self-metathesis of 1-decene. In our efforts to prepare C1-Me without utilizing a Grubbs I intermediate, a new complex (6) bearing our NHC ligand was isolated and characterized by 1H NMR and single crystal x-ray diffraction spectroscopy. The reaction of C1-Me with ethylene did not produce the desired C1-Me-methylidene variant - however, the same reaction with propylene gave C1-Me-ethylidene with relative ease. Analyzing the active catalytic species under the metathesis of 1-decene revealed that the resting state of the catalyst is not the expected methylidene, but rather the longer chain nonylidene. xi Initiation studies were conducted to compare the rates of initiation for catalyst C1-Me and the nonmethylated C1-H. First, the rate of metathesis was followed in the irreversible reaction with ethyl vinyl ether. Second, ligand exchange equilibrium experiments were carried out to compare the dissociation constants for the pyridyl moieties in both catalysts. The outcome of these studies revealed that catalyst C1-Me, with a methyl group in the phenoxide ring, exhibits a 10-fold increase in initiation versus the nonmethylated C1-H catalyst. The NHC ligand scaffold reported in this work may assist in the development of other inorganic and organometallic catalytic systems, as many rely on the use of ancillary ligands for support. Furthermore, fixing a hemilabile ethoxy-pyridyl arm onto already robust systems, such as ruthenium catalysts bearing a cyclic alkyl amino carbene ligand, may offer even greater catalytic turnover numbers (TONs).

This book was released on 2013 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of a European wide effort to develop metathesis catalysts for use in fine chemical and pharmaceutical compound synthesis, this study focuses on the design and synthesis of ruthenium based catalysts for olefin metathesis. The aim, of this work was simple: to develop new, more active, more stable, easy to synthesise and commercially viable Ruthenium based catalysts, as well trying to rationalize the effect of structural changes on reactivity. Two different approaches were explored in order to develop more active catalysts bearing N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands: changing the leaving group and the effect of the NHC moiety in indenylidene type complexes. Over 12 new catalysts were developed and their activity compared to that of commercially available catalysts. Overall, the new complexes exhibited superior reactivity compared to previously reported catalysts in several benchmark transformations. However, olefin metathesis is a very substrate specific reaction, and rather than finding one catalyst that is superior to all, a catalogue of catalysts suitable for specific transformations was developed. In addition, the effect of structural changes on substrate activity was investigated in the ring closing metathesis of 1,8-nonadienes. The reaction profiling showcased the presence of a gem-difluoro group as an accelerating group in this incarnation of the olefin metathesis reaction and leads to ring formation over polymerization. In order to rationalize the effect of structural changes on catalyst activity, kinetic studies dealing with the initiation mechanism of ruthenium-indenylidene complexes were examined and compared with that of benzylidene counterparts. It was discovered that not all indenylidene complexes followed the same mechanism, highlighting the importance of steric and electronic properties of so-called spectator ligands, and that there is no single mechanism for the ruthenium-based olefin metathesis reaction. These results highlight the importance of systematic development of catalysts and that as scientists we should not take for granted.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalytic olefin metathesis has significantly enhanced the power of synthetic chemistry. In particular, Ru-alkylidene catalysed olefin metathesis has played a key role in the discovery ofmany new and exciting technologies. However, there are still many challenges which remainunaddressed in this field of chemistry. In this thesis, three independent research projects are presented which collectively extend the scope of olefin metathesis. Towards this end, research exploring i) tandem catalysis (Chapter 2), ii) cross-metathesis of sterically hindered olefins(Chapter 3) and iii) olefin metathesis in aqueous media (Chapter 4) are described. In each case, a brief literature survey is used to contextualise the ensuing research, which is presented in manuscript format with its supporting data.Chapter 1 presents a brief overview of Ru-alkylidene catalysed olefin metathesis. This includes an introduction to the general classes of olefin metathesis reactions, namely ring-closing metathesis, cross metathesis and ring-opening metathesis polymerisation, catalysed by Ru-alkylidene complexes. The mechanism of olefin metathesis is also detailed, as areselected examples which highlight the utility of this class of reaction.Chapter 2 describes the development of a tandem olefin metathesis/hydrogenationprotocol. Also detailed within this chapter are strategies to prevent concomitant alkeneisomerisation during olefin metathesis reactions involving reactive terminal olefins. The methodology developed in this study has been applied to the synthesis of a family of enantiopure lipophilic amino acids. This scalable process delivers lipophilic amino acids with sufficient purity to be directly incorporated into a peptide sequence via solid phase peptidesynthesis.Chapter 3 details studies towards the efficient cross-metathesis of previously unreactive substrates. In particular, this chapter describes the use of a cross-metathesis reaction between allylglycine derivatives and methylenecycloalkanes, followed by an acid-catalysed cyclisation,to access a family of enantiopure 1-azaspiropyrrolidines. Ring-expansion of the1-azaspiropyrrolidine structures conveniently affords 1-azaspiropiperidine motifs. Extension of this strategy was required to access the tricyclic marine alkaloid lepadiformine. This involvedcross-metathesis reactions using allylic substituted methylenecycloalkane derivatives, substrates which were previously unreactive in cross-metathesis reactions due to steric hindrance. Towards this end, this chapter details studies towards the development of a steric reversal strategy for the cross-metathesis of sterically hindered olefins.Chapter 4 describes the development of an ammonium-functionalised second generation Hoveyda Grubbs-type complex for olefin metathesis in water. A simple and scalablepreparation of a strategically functionalised Ru-alkylidene complex is discussed. This Ru-alkylidene complex exhibits high olefin metathesis activity in water, without the need for additives or surfactants. The ring-closing metathesis and cross-metathesis reaction of variousnitrogen- and oxygen-containing substrates is demonstrated.Finally, Chapter 5 contains supporting information for the published manuscripts andexperimental data for any unpublished material presented in this thesis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in olefin metathesis has increased over the years with the development of ruthenium-based catalysts. Their unique properties have allowed their use in numerous industrial and laboratory processes in relatively mild conditions and in combination with a wide range of solvents. Several studies have provided insights into how these catalysts work, but very little has been done in order to understand why they work that way; an important aspect that has the potential of benefiting chemists while designing new catalysts. The research introduced here has focused on the fundamental understanding of their reactivity by exploring their electronic structure, using a combination of synchrotron-based X-ray-absorption (XAS) techniques in combination with DFT calculations and multiplet simulations. As part of the experimental work, samples from various ruthenium-based catalysts classified as first-generation (whenever the ancillary ligand is a phosphine) or as second-generation analogues (whenever this ligand is an N-heterocyclic carbene, NHC) were used. The Ru K-edge XAS data have revealed that the ruthenium centre in second-generation analogues is more positively charged than the corresponding first-generation counterparts. This offers a rationale for previously observed kinetic results, which have shown a slower initial step for the second-generation Grubbs catalyst. At the same time, they raise questions in a more fundamental level on whether or not NHCs are truly better charge donors than phosphine ligands. DFT results are consistent and the ongoing analyses of the Cl K- and C K-edge XAS data indicate similar overall bonding structures between first- and second- generation analogues. In addition, from preliminary results on these edges, two possible identities of substantially different nature have emerged for the LUMO orbital. In this regard, the final conclusion should provide important insights on through which orbital the metathesis reaction gets started. As a sid.
