M. Bayne and D. W. Stephan Accepted 00th January 20xx Part of the renaissance in main group chemistry has been a result of the focus on reactivity. This has led to the DOI: 10.1039/x0xx00000x development of applications in stoichiometric reactivity and catalysis. In this tutorial review, we focus attention on the role of phosphorus-based Lewis acids in such advances. While early literature recognizes the role of P(III) and P(V) www.rsc.org/ electrophiles in coordination chemistry, it has generally been more recent studies that have focused on applications of this Lewis acidity. Applications of these novel P-based Lewis acids in stoichiometric reactivity, Lewis acid catalysis and frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) reactivity are reviewed. These advances demonstrate that P-based Lewis acids are a powerful tool for further developments in metal-free catalysis. Key Learning Points 1. The development of main group catalysis has contributed to significant advancements in catalytic and stoichiometric transformations. 2. Although P(III) species are typical Lewis bases, phosphenium cations have demonstrated electron accepting abilities. 3. As saturated acceptors, phosphorus(V)-based Lewis acids derive their acidity from a low lying σ* orbital.

    16th Boron Chemistry Meeting in the Americas June 26 - 30, 2018 at Boston College Program and Abstracts 1 WELCOME It is our distinct pleasure to welcome you to the 16th Boron Chemistry Meeting in the Americas here at Boston College. We hope that you will enjoy the historic city of Boston as well as the four-day program filled with exciting talks and stimulating discussions. Delegates from all over the world (North-, Central-, and South America, Europe, and Asia), and from diverse backgrounds (academia, industry, and government) are coming together at this conference to learn about the latest developments in boron chemistry. Thus, we hope that this gathering will not only promote scientific exchange and collaboration but also provide an opportunity for participants to make new connections and to reconnect with old friends. In organizing the program, the vision we had was to highlight the versatility of the element boron in four specific areas (medicinal chemistry, organic synthesis, materials chemistry, fundamental chemistry). This four-pronged thematic focus is represented by our conference logo with four infinity symbols surrounding the boron and is reflected by the scientific program. One of the highlights of the program will be the poster session on Wednesday evening. This will be a great opportunity to chat about the latest research while enjoying small bites and drinks. Another highlight is the conference banquet, which will take place on Thursday evening at the exquisite State Room with unparalleled views of the city and the Boston waterfront from the 33rd floor in the heart of downtown Boston. During the banquet we will celebrate Prof.

    Investigating Metal Oxide Nanoparticles as Photocatalysts for Carbon Dioxide Reduction Reactions by « Thomas Wood » A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Thomas Wood 2017 ii Investigating Metal Oxide Nanoparticles as Photocatalysts for Carbon Dioxide Reduction Reactions Thomas Wood Doctorate of Philosophy Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Metal oxide nanoparticles were investigated for their application as photocatalysts for the gas- phase photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to value-added chemicals and fuels. A multi- photoreactor catalyst screening system was developed to screen a broad set of nanoparticles for 13 photocatalytic activity. Carbon-13 labelled carbon dioxide ( CO2) isotope tracing was carried out to discriminate whether the products arose from CO2 conversion or from reactions involving residual carbon contamination. A set of metal oxide photocatalysts were investigated at o o temperatures ranging from 80 C to 190 C in atmospheres containing both H2 and CO2. A nanoparticle heterostructure composed of Cu sputtered into a mesoporous TiO2 nanoparticle film was synthesized. These films showed evidence of increased hydrocarbon production under illumination, but no 13C labelled product was measured. iii Hydroxylated indium sesquioxide (In2O3-xOHy) nanoparticles were synthesized and investigated for the photocatalytic conversion of CO2. It was found that In2O3-xOHy nanoparticles are capable of photocatalytically and thermally driving the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction at o 13 13 temperatures above 130 C. Both CO and trace CH4 were measured. A strong relationship between the CO2 adsorption capacity and the relative surface concentrations of surface defects, such as hydroxides and oxygen vacancies, and photocatalytic activity was established.

  • Synthesis and Reactivity of Transition Metal and Main Group Hydrogenation Catalysts
    Synthesis and Reactivity of Transition Metal and Main Group Hydrogenation Catalysts by Eliar Mosaferi A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Eliar Mosaferi 2019 Synthesis and Reactivity of Transition Metal and Main Group Hydrogenation Catalysts Eliar Mosaferi Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Since its discovery by Paul Sabatier, catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated substrates has become the single largest industrial process to date and encompasses the production of many products, such as foods, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and materials. Over the last century research in the area has predominantly focused on the use of transition metals such as palladium, platinum, rhodium, and ruthenium to develop heterogeneous and homogeneous hydrogenation catalysts. The research presented herein focuses on the use of ruthenium complexes bearing electron-rich phosphorylated N-heterocyclic carbene ligands as well as the development of main- group compounds for frustrated Lewis pair catalysis. Complexes [Ru(0)LL’2(CO)] and [RuHL2(CO)][Cl], where L = N-phosphorylated N- heterocyclic carbene (NHCP), and L’ = triphenylphosphine, were prepared as a mixture by treatment of RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 with excess NHCP carbene and separated by crystallization. The zero-valent complex [Ru(0)LL’2(CO)] was shown to undergo rapid oxidative addition to the corresponding Ru(II) species when treated with small molecules to afford complexes of the general type [RuHXLL’(CO)], where L = N-phosphorylated N-heterocyclic carbene, L = triphenylphosphine, and X = H, SiPh3, or Si(H)Ph2. ii The reaction of NHCP carbene with [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 resulted in the isolation of the piano- stool half-sandwich complex [RuCl2(p-cymene)(NHCP)] as well as an unusual arene-activated species.

  • Exploring Low-Coordinate Aluminum-Based Lewis Acids for Small Molecule Activation
    Exploring Low-Coordinate Aluminum-Based Lewis Acids for Small Molecule Activation by Erika Nicole Daley A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Erika N. Daley 2016 Exploring Low-Coordinate Aluminum-Based Lewis Acids for Small Molecule Activation Erika Nicole Daley Master of Science Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2016 Abstract While there have been a significant number of publications in the field of frustrated Lewis pair chemistry, only a fraction employ aluminum-based Lewis acids. The research presented herein expands the scope of Lewis acids to include novel aluminum-based compounds. N-heterocyclic carbene-stabilized three-coordinate aluminum cations were synthesized from the NHC-AlR3 adduct by abstraction of an R substituent from aluminum. These compounds were crystallographically characterized and exhibited solvent-dependent reactivity. Hydrogenation catalysis and radical reactivity were also explored experimentally and computationally. ii Acknowledgments First and foremost, I would like to extend my greatest thanks to my supervisor Professor Doug Stephan, for his patience, support, inspiration, and for giving me the opportunity to carry out my degree in such a wonderful group. Your enthusiasm for chemistry is contagious. Thank you for fostering a productive and rewarding research environment to work in. Thank you to all of my colleagues in the Stephan group for helpful science-related discussions and for making the lab a fun and exciting place to be. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Alex Pulis for your guidance when I started in the group, and throughout the first year of my degree.
