Abstract:
Condensation reactions of enantiopure bis-3,4-diazaphospholanes (BDPs) that are functionalized with carboxylic acids enable covalent attachment to bead and silica supports. Exposure of tethered BDPs to the hydroformylation catalyst precursor, Rh(acac)(CO)2, yields catalysts for immobilized asymmetric hydroformylation (iAHF) of prochiral alkenes. Compared with homogeneous catalysts, catalysts immobilized on Tentagel resins exhibit similarly high regioselectivity and enantioselectivity. When corrected for apparent catalyst loading, the activity of the immobilized catalysts approaches that of the homogeneous analogues. Excellent recyclability with trace levels of rhodium leaching are observed in batch and flow reactor conditions. Silica-bound catalysts exhibit poorer enantioselectivities.

02:17Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
02:36Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn...
02:24Reduction of Alkynes to cis-Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Like alkenes, alkynes can be reduced to alkanes in the presence of transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, or Ni. The reaction involves two sequential syn additions of hydrogen via a cis-alkene intermediate.
02:47Alkynes to Aldehydes and Ketones: Hydroboration-Oxidation
One of the convenient methods for the preparation of aldehydes and ketones is via hydration of alkynes. Hydroboration-oxidation of alkynes is an indirect hydration reaction in which an alkyne is treated with borane followed by oxidation with alkaline peroxide to form an enol that rapidly converts into an aldehyde or a ketone. Terminal alkynes form aldehydes, whereas internal alkynes give ketones as the final product.
