ACS Catalysis, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(3), С. 2017 - 2032

Опубликована: Янв. 21, 2025

Reductive imination of aldehydes to the corresponding secondary imines, while attractive and promising, remains a big challenge due consecutive hydrogenation hydroammonolysis in situ formed imine. Herein, we describe strategy shape-selective catalysis for reductive biomass-derived furfural with H2NOH H2 by using Ru nanoclusters confined within regular micropores ZSM-5 (Ru@ZSM-5). The Ru@ZSM-5 features oxime-hydrogenation furfurylimine-hydrogenation their closed molecular sizes pore apertures (5.3 × 5.6 Å) ZSM-5. In contrast, imine (4.3 11.2 large size could not pass through reach active sites, thus remaining unaffected without further hydroammonolysis. shape-selectivity is confirmed catalyst-passivation hydrogen-spillover experiments. shows high activity good recyclability easily extended variety aldehydes.

Activating Pronucleophiles with High pK_a Values: Chiral Organo‐Superbases

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 59(21), С. 8004 - 8014

Опубликована: Дек. 2, 2019

Abstract Direct deprotonation represents an extremely simple, straightforward, and atom‐economic strategy to activate pronucleophiles bearing acidic proton. However, the difficulty often arises in activating with high p K a values by using conventional chiral tertiary amines. To overcome this challenge, handful of novel Brønsted superbases, including amidines, guanidines, cyclopropenimines, iminophosphoranes, have been discovered recent years. This minireview focuses on application these organo‐superbases catalytic asymmetric reactions weakly pronucleophiles, highlights their comparison amines, demonstrating highly efficient processes stereoselectivity controlled conversions superbases. The advantage new superbases brings great opportunity for developing more transformations pronucleophiles.

Phosphorus‐Containing Superbases: Recent Progress in the Chemistry of Electron‐Abundant Phosphines and Phosphazenes

Chemistry - A European Journal, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 27(42), С. 10807 - 10825

Опубликована: Май 25, 2021

The renaissance of Brønsted superbases is primarily based on their pronounced capacity for a large variety chemical transformations under mild reaction conditions. Four major set screws are available the selective tuning basicity: nature basic center (N, P, …), degree electron donation by substituents to central atom, possibility charge delocalization, and energy gain hydrogen bonding. Within past decades, plethora neutral electron-rich phosphine phosphazene bases have appeared in literature. Their outstanding properties advantages over inorganic or charged now made them indispensable as auxiliary deprotonation processes. Herein, an update chemistry phosphines phosphazenes given. In addition, due widespread interest, use catalysis ligands coordination highlighted.

Epoxides: Small Rings to Play with under Asymmetric Organocatalysis

ACS Organic & Inorganic Au, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 2(4), С. 289 - 305

Опубликована: Март 29, 2022

Optically pure epoxides are recognized as highly valuable products and key intermediates, useful in different areas from pharmaceutical agrochemical industries to natural product synthesis materials science. The predictable fate of the ring-opening process, terms stereoselectivity often regioselectivity, enables functional groups be installed at vicinal carbon atoms a desired manner. In this way, widespread utility either for synthetic applications or final can obtained. advent asymmetric organocatalysis provided new convenient tool, not only their preparation but also elaboration class heterocycles. review, we focus on recent developments stereoselective organocatalytic reactions meso-epoxides, kinetic resolution racemic epoxides, Meinwald-type rearrangement. Examples processes toward specific targets, which include ring opening an epoxide intermediate, illustrated.

Diversity‐Orientated Stereoselective Synthesis through Pd‐Catalyzed Switchable Decarboxylative C−N/C−S Bond Formation in Allylic Surrogates

Chemistry - A European Journal, Год журнала: 2018, Номер 24(72), С. 19156 - 19161

Опубликована: Окт. 25, 2018

Switchable catalytic transformation of reactants can be a powerful approach towards diversity-orientated synthesis from easily available molecular synthons. Herein, an endogenous ligand-controlled, Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution allowing for either selective C-N or C-S bond formation using vinylethylene carbonates (VECs) and N-sulfonylhydrazones as coupling partners has been developed. This versatile methodology provides facile, divergent route the highly chemo- stereoselective functional sulfones sulfonohydrazides. The newly developed protocol features wide substrate scope (nearly 80 examples), broad group tolerance, potential late-stage functionalization bioactive compounds. isolation crystallographic analysis catalytically competent π-allyl Pd complex suggests that pathway leading to products proceeds through different manifold previously proposed VECs with nucleophiles.
