Heterogeneous Hydroxyl-Directed Hydrogenation: Control of Diastereoselectivity through Bimetallic Surface Composition

Directed hydrogenation, in which product selectivity is dictated by the binding of an ancillary directing group on the substrate to the catalyst, is typically catalyzed by homogeneous Rh and Ir complexes. No heterogeneous catalyst has been able to achieve equivalently high directivity due to a lack of control over substrate binding orientation at the catalyst surface. In this work, we demonstrate that Pd-Cu bimetallic nanoparticles with both Pd and Cu atoms distributed across the surface are capable of high conversion and diastereoselectivity in the hydroxyl-directed hydrogenation reaction of terpinen-4-ol. We postulate that the OH directing group adsorbs to the more oxophilic Cu atom while the olefin and hydrogen bind to adjacent Pd atoms, thus enabling selective delivery of hydrogen to the olefin from the same face as the directing group with a 16:1 diastereomeric ratio.

The preparation of a new series of dihydridoboranes supported by N,N-chelating ligands, [R2NCH2CH2NAr]- (R = alkyl, Ar = aryl), is reported. These new boranes react selectively with carbonyls, imines, and a series of electron-deficient fluoroarenes. The reactivity is complementary to recognized reagents such as pinacolborane, catecholborane, NHC-BH3, and borane (BH3) itself. Selectivities are rationalized by invoking both open- A nd closed-chain forms of the reagents as part of equilibrium mixtures.

Manganese(I) catalysts incorporating readily available bidentate 2-aminopyridinyl-phosphine ligands achieve a high efficiency in the hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds, significantly better than parent ones based on more elaborated and expensive tridentate 2,6-(diaminopyridinyl)-diphosphine ligands. The reaction proceeds with low catalyst loading (0.5 mol%) under mild conditions (50 °C) with yields up to 96%. (Figure presented.).
