Ruthenium-Catalyzed Deuteration of Alcohols with Deuterium Oxide

The catalytic properties of a series of ruthenium complexes for H/D exchange between D2O and alcohols were studied. The catalytic activity of the ruthenium complexes and the regioselectivity of the H/D exchange reactions were found to be dependent on the auxiliary ligands. While ruthenium η6-cymene complexes such as [(η6-cymene)RuCl(NH2CH2CH2NTs)]Cl, (η6-cymene)RuCl2/NH2CH2CH2OH, and (η6-cymene)Ru{(S,S)-NHCHPhCHPhNTs} catalyzed regioselective deuteration of alcohols with D2O at the β-carbon positions only, octahedral ruthenium complexes such as RuCl2(2-NH2CH2Py)(PPh3)2 (2-NH2CH2Py = 2-aminomethylpyridine) and RuCl2(NH2CH2CH2NH2)(PPh3)2 catalyzed regioselective H/D exchange reactions of D2O with alcohols at both the α- and β-carbon positions of alcohols. The H/D exchange reactions proceed through reversible dehydrogenation of alcohols and hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds involving hydride species and H/D exchange among D2O and carbonyl and hydride species. The different regioselectivities of the H/D exchange reactions can be related to the relative ease of H/D exchange of ruthenium hydride intermediates with D2O. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Hydrogen-transfer reduction of carbonyl compounds promoted by nickel nanoparticles

Nickel(0) nanoparticles, generated from nickel(II) chloride, lithium powder and a catalytic amount of 4,4-di-tert-butylbiphenyl (DTBB) in THF at room temperature, have been found to promote the reduction of a variety of ketones and aldehydes by transfer hydrogenation using isopropanol as the hydrogen donor. The nickel nanoparticles were characterised and could be re-utilised with a good performance in the absence of a base. A mechanistic study demonstrates that the reaction proceeds through a dihydride-type mechanism.

PREPARATION OF DEUTERIATED 1-PHENYLETHANOLS BY REDUCTIVE DEHALOGENATION OF THE CORRESPONDING HALOGENOACETOPHENONES WITH RANEY ALLOYS IN AN ALKALINE DEUTERIUM OXIDE SOLUTION

Deuteriated 1-phenylethanols were prepared by reductive dehalogenation of the corresponding halogenoacetophenones with Raney Ni-Al and Cu-Al alloys in 5percent NaOD-D2O solution.It was found that the Ni-Al alloy introduced greater than expected numbers of deuterium atoms in the phenyl ring, but the expected deuteriated 1-phenylethanols were obtained in high yield and in high isotopic purity when Raney Cu-Al alloy was used.
