Book The Search for Catalysts Using the Cooperativity of Transition Metals and Heterocyclic Ligands

Download or read book The Search for Catalysts Using the Cooperativity of Transition Metals and Heterocyclic Ligands written by Sang Van and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of new and efficient catalysts plays an important role in chemical research. The inspiration for finding new catalysts includes long-term benefits such as (a) efficient, atom-economical reactions; (b) chemoselective reactions under mild conditions, obviating the need for protection and deprotection of functional groups; and (c) reduction of chemical waste in the production of fine chemicals for pharmaceuticals. For these purposes, artificial enzyme mimics are exploited. In the preparation of such catalysts, a promising approach is to translate the principles of enzyme catalysis for the design of new catalytic materials. In this research, we used design features of the cooperativity of Lewis acid transition metals and heterocyclic ligands designed to provide hydrogen bond donor (A) and acceptor (B), inspired by Nature's enzymes, to catalyze reactions of polar molecules such as water, alcohols, or amines with organic molecules.* To synthesize our catalysts, we envisioned anchoring a transition metal to a heterocycle which features a reasonably acidic N-H group (A). In this research, we prepared 10 pyrazole ligands and 35 of their complexes, 15 of which were analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Furthermore, isoelectronic and isosteric complexes incapable of donating or accepting hydrogen bond(s) were also synthesized to determine the relationship between hydrogen-bond donating properties and catalytic efficiency. All the complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Part of our studies to date have focused on the hydrolysis of unactivated amide bonds, thought to be a more difficult challenge than similar reactions of phosphate diesters. We also focused on the use of hydrogen-donating-group-assisted in catalysis of chemoselective hydrogenation of imines. We also used bifunctional catalysts to catalyze regio- and stereoselective dimerization of terminal alkynes, and hydrogen transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes, ketones, and imines. The catalysts can also catalyze cyclization and coupling reactions of alkynols. Significantly, these catalytic processes involve both C-C and C-O bond formation with diastereo- and regioselectivity. These results are fruitful because we have opened another field of catalysis using the combined effects of hydrogen-bond donating ligands and Lewis acidic transition metals. *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams.

The book is divided into three parts, devoted to introduction and concepts, applications, and case studies. After the introduction on key concepts related to the field, and the different types of ligands and complexes in which ligand-centered redox activity is commonly observed, mechanistic and computational studies are described. The second part focuses on catalytic applications of redox-active complexes, including examples from radical transformations, coordination chemistry and organic synthesis. Finally, case studies of redox-active guanidine ligands, and of lanthanides and actinides are presented. Other specific sample topics covered include: An overview of the electronic features of redox-active ligands, covering their historical perspective and biological background The versatility and mode of action of redox-active ligands, which sets them apart from more classic and tunable ligands such as phosphines or N-heterocyclic carbenes Preparation and catalytic applications of complexes of stable N-aryl radicals Metal complexes with redox-active ligands in H+/e- transfer transformations By providing up-to-date information on important concepts and applications, Redox-Active Ligands is an essential reading for researchers working in organometallic and coordination chemistry, catalysis, organic synthesis, and (bio)inorganic chemistry, as well as newcomers to the field.
