Byersa By using an iron-based catalyst, access to enantioenriched 1,1-diarylakanes was enabled through an enantioselective Suzuki-Miyaura cross- coupling reaction. The combination of a chiral cyanobis(oxazoline) ligand framework and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene additive were essential to afford high yields and enantioselectivities in cross-coupling reactions between unactivated aryl boronic esters and a variety of benzylic chlorides, including challenging ortho-substituted benzylic chloride substrates. Mechanistic investigations implicate a stereoconvergent pathway involving carbon-centered radical intermediates. Introduction Since the renaissance of iron-based catalysts used for cross-coupling reactions were galvanized by the seminal work of Fürstner at the turn of the century,1 industrial and academic interest in these catalysts have increased due to the high abundance and low toxicity of iron as well as the unique reactivity that these types of catalysts afford.2–4 Fast reaction kinetics are often observed with iron-based catalysts, which leads to complementary reactivity compared to many nickel-based catalysts used for similar reactions.1,5 A particularly prolific area of cross-coupling reactions that has benefited from the development of iron-based catalysts are reactions involving alkyl halide electrophiles with organomagnesium,6–9 organozinc,10,11 organoaluminium,12 and most recently organoboron-based13–17 organometallic nucleophiles. These catalysts have demonstrated remarkable reactivity, especially for cross coupling reactions involving sterically demanding substrates and heteroaromatic boronic esters.18 Despite these rapid advancements, enantioselective cross-coupling reactions that utilize iron-based catalysts are exceedingly rare and have been greatly overshadowed by the tremendous achievements in enantioconvergent systems employing nickel-based catalysts.19 In fact, only three enantioselective cross coupling reactions that utilize iron-based catalysts have been reported.20–22 All of these reactions use a-haloesters as electrophiles and none of them use unactivated boronic esters as nucleophiles. With this report, we expand the nascent scope of enantioselective iron-based cross-coupling reactions and advocate for their value in chemical synthesis with the synthesis of enantioenriched 1,1-diarylalkanes (Figure 1). Blockbuster pharmaceuticals, such as Zoloft, Detrol and SGLT2 inhibitors all contain the chiral 1,1-diarylalkane motif while eliciting a range of physiological responses (Figure 1a).23 Despite the fact that one enantiomer of these drugs is often more potent,[24] they are either sold as racemates, mixtures of diastereomers,25 or are obtained in enantioenriched form as a result of a late stage resolution.[25,26] These tactics are a likely symptom of synthetic limitations that have prevented access to enantiomerically enriched 1,1-diaryl alkanes. Consequently, Figure 1 a) Pharmaceuticals containing the 1,1-diarylalkane motif. b) the enantioselective synthesis of the 1,1-diarylalkane subunit has Synthetic routes to enantiomerically enriched 1,1-diarylalkanes c) become a popular contemporary topic for synthetic organic Enantioconvergent Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of benzylic chlorides [27] chemists. Current approaches toward such motifs include catalyzed by iron complexes supported by cyanobis(oxazoline) ligands. asymmetric hydrogenation of 1,1-diarylalkenes, [28,29], nucleophilic and radical additions to alkenes,[30–32] and stereospecific[33–35] as well as Since ligand modifications did not improve performance, 1 was [36,37] stereoconvergent cross coupling reactions (Figure 1b). A method used for the final optimization because the ligand in 1 is commercially that is noticeably absent from this list is a stereoconvergent Suzuki- available. In our original report, we found that an extra equivalent of Miyaura cross coupling reaction. Such a reaction would closely mimic ligand was needed to obtain high yields of the cross-coupled product at the ubiquitous Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions used in the the expense of slower reaction rates.17 We hypothesized that the extra pharmaceutical industry for the construction of C–C bonds between two ligand formed an off cycle homoleptic complex containing two 2 38 sp -hybridized substrates. Herein, we report the first enantioselective cyanobis(oxazoline) ligands, which extended catalyst lifetime by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between benzylic chlorides and preventing catalyst aggregation. Since benzylic halides have weak unactivated arylboronic-pinacol esters that is made possible by carbon-halogen bonds that are more susceptible to homolysis, we capitalizing on the reactivity of an iron-based catalyst (Figure 1c). hypothesized that using extra ligand was detrimental for this class of electrophiles, leading to increased production of 3. Consistent with this hypothesis were higher yields of 2 with concomitant decreased yield of Results and discussion 3 for a reaction carried out without extra ligand (entry 13). Control Previously, we reported that iron-based complexes supported by experiments confirmed once again that 1,3,5-TMB led to higher yields, chiral cyanobis(oxazoline) ligands were competent catalysts for Suzuki- even without extra ligand (entry 14). Finally, enantioselectivity was Miyaura cross coupling reactions between alkyl halides and unactivated aryl boronic esters.17 Given that the method utilized a chiral catalyst and Table 1. Optimization of the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction tolerated secondary alkyl halides, we hypothesized that it would be between 1-chloroethylbenzene and 2-napthylboronic pinacol ester suitable for the stereoselective cross-coupling of secondary benzyl catalyzed by bis(oxazoline) iron complexes. halide electrophiles and arylboronic ester nucleophiles to give X O O R O O R4 3 enantioenriched 1,1-diaryl alkanes.

  • The Development of Simplified Microreactors for Use in Multi-Step Reaction Sequences
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF SIMPLIFIED MICROREACTORS FOR USE IN MULTI-STEP REACTION SEQUENCES A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Andrew R. Bogdan August 2009 © 2009 Andrew R. Bogdan THE DEVELOPMENT OF SIMPLIFIED MICROREACTORS FOR USE IN MULTI-STEP REACTION SEQUENCES Andrew R. Bogdan, Ph. D. Cornell University 2009 This dissertation describes the development of simplified microreactors to be used in multi-step reaction sequences. Microreactors are a developing technology with numerous benefits and whose modular design permits multi-step reaction sequences to be performed in a continuous flow process. The first chapter discusses the physical properties of microreactors and describes how performing reactions in these miniaturized reactors leads to safer, more efficient and more selective chemical transformations. A brief discussion of multi-step reaction sequences already performed in flow will also be presented. These multi-step reaction sequences, however, rarely rely on catalysis to facilitate chemical transformations. This area therefore has room for great improvement. The next two chapters discuss the development and application of solid-supported catalysts to be used in flow. In the first of these two chapters, two catalysts are immobilized on a solid-support and used in a simplified flow reactor. These reactions proved to be more efficient than similar batch reaction and the catalysts were highly recyclable. The next chapter presents a supported TEMPO catalyst used to oxidize alcohols to carbonyl species. These three catalysts set the foundation for multi-step flow reaction to be potentially performed in the group.

  • Adsorption Behavior of the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Alkyl, Allyl and Aryl Alcohols Over Nanoscale (1 0 0) Surface of Γ-Alumina
    Adsorption Behavior of the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Alkyl, Allyl and Aryl Alcohols Over Nanoscale (1 0 0) Surface of γ-Alumina Mehdi Zamani1,2*, Hossein A. Dabbagh2* 1) Department of Chemistry, Malek-ashtar University of Technology, Shahin-shahr P.O. Box 83145/115, Islamic Republic of Iran 2) Department of Chemistry, Isfahan University of Technology, Isfahan 84156-83111, Islamic Republic of Iran Abstract In this study, the adsorption behavior of the primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols over nanoscale (1 0 0) surface of defect spinel γ-alumina was investigated with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) at BLYP/DNP level of calculation. The influence of different substituents including alkyl, cycloalkyl, allyl and aryl were analyzed for free and adsorbed alcohols to shed light the adsorption selectivity of these compounds over γ-alumina surface. These results indicate that more branches at position of alcohol favor the adsorption, while a decrease in adsorption energy is achieved for the alcohols containing the substituents at the β position. The tertiary alcohols are adsorbed over the surface stronger than secondary and primary alcohols. Alcohols with larger alkyl chains have greater adsorption energies. Also the aryl alcohols are adsorbed over the surface better than the alkyl and allyl moieties. Keywords: Nanoscale surface of γ-Alumina; Alcohol; Molecular adsorption; DFT © 2014 Published by Journal of Nanoanalysis. 1. Introduction Alumina is well known catalyst by both acidic and basic properties. In recent years, many experimental and theoretical works have studied the structure, reactivity and selectivity of γ-alumina especially at nanoscale (1-23). Theoretical investigations of the adsorption on γ-alumina have focused mostly on Lewis acidity of the surface (1-4), and the reactivity with water (5-11), hydrogen sulfide (5,10,12), carbon monoxide (5,10,13), ammonia (6), pyridine (4,6), hydrogen chloride (7), alkenes (14,15), alkanes (16), alcohols (17-23) and ethers (23).
