Among available catalyst platforms, heterogeneous catalysts are particularly well-disposed toward separation from the reaction mixture via filtration methods, which renders them readily recyclable. Furthermore, heterogeneous catalysts offer numer- ous handlessome without homogeneous analoguesfor performance and selectivity optimization. These handles include nano- particle size, pore profile of porous supports, surface ligands and interface with oxide supports, and flow rate through a solid catalyst bed. Despite these available handles, however, conventional heterogeneous catalysts are themselves often structurally heterogeneous compared to homogeneous catalysts, which complicates efforts to optimize and expand the scope of their reactivity and selectivity. Ongoing efforts in our laboratories are aimed to address the above challenge by heterogenizing homogeneous catalysts, which can be defined as the modification of homogeneous catalysts to render them in a separable (solid) phase from the starting materials and products. Specifically, we grow the small nanoclusters in dendrimers, a class of uniform polymers with the connectivity of fractal trees and generally radial symmetry.

  • Organometallic Chemistry at the Nanoscale
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 75, No. 4, pp. 461–481, 2003. © 2003 IUPAC Organometallic chemistry at the nanoscale. Dendrimers for redox processes and catalysis* Didier Astruc Laboratoire de Chimie Organique et Organométallique, UMR CNRS No 5802, Université Bordeaux I, 33405 Talence Cedex, France Abstract: An overview of the metal-mediated synthesis and use of nanosized metalloden- drimers is given with emphasis on electron-transfer processes (molecular batteries consisting in dendrimers decorated with a large number of equivalent redox-active centers) and catalytic reactions (electron-transfer-chain catalytic synthesis of dendrimers decorated with ruthenium carbonyl clusters, redox catalysis of nitrate and nitrite electroreduction in water by star-shape hexanuclear catalysts). INTRODUCTION Although most rules of stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic activation are now known [1], there remains a wide-open field of research for development and applications using the exploration of the best metal-ligand combination toward a given reaction. Present examples can now be found in metathesis that remained restricted to nonfunctional olefins for a long time until the recent successful efforts of Grubbs’ [2] and Schrock’s groups [3]. Their commercial catalysts are now of everyday use for organic and polymer chemists. A previous success story of this kind started in 1970 when Kagan first published efficient asymmetric catalysis with the powerful concept of chiral chelating phosphine [4]. This idea led many chemists, including other prestigious ones, to find optically active drugs with close to 100 % ee, an essential requirement for safe use by the public [5]. What now remains to be done? Indeed, the task is enormous for 21st century organometallic and molecular chemists.

Two subjects are presented and discussed: (i) The catalysis of olefin metathesis by dendritic nano-catalysts via either covalent attachment (ROMP) or, more usefully, dendrimer encapsulation – ring closing metathesis (RCM), cross metathesis (CM), enyne metathesis reactions (EYM) – for reactions in water without a co-solvent and (ii) construction and functionalization of dendrimers by CM reactions. Introduction Olefin metathesis reactions [1-7] have been successfully which dendrimer chemistry can be useful in this direction, and catalyzed under standard conditions, including reactions at this short review article will indicate the various connections room temperature and sometimes even in air, with commercial between metathesis reactions and dendrimer chemistry. Grubbs-type catalysts [8,9]. These are now largely developed for industry with functional substrates for the synthesis of Review highly sophisticated pharmaceutical products and polymers.
