  • Chiral Synthesis of Alcohols Via Asymmetric Epoxidation Redacted for Privacy Abstract Approved: Dr
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jeffrey R. Engebrecht for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry presented on April 3, 1985. Title: Chiral Synthesis of Alcohols via Asymmetric Epoxidation Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Dr. James D. White Enantioselective epoxidation of crotyl alcohol, followed by a cuprate mediated methylation, gave a 1:1 mixture of (2S) -3- methyl -1,2- butanediol and (2R,3S)-2-methy1-1,3- butanediol. The latter was separated as its 2,4,6-tri- methylbenzenesulfonate derivative and converted via the iodide to the corresponding phosphonium salt. The separ- ated butanediol derivatives were independently transformed to (S)-3-methyl -2-butanol, thereby proving configuration and establishing optical purity. The primary trityl ether of the chiral butane-1,3- diol was converted to (2S,3R)-2-methy1-3-tert-butyldimethyl- silyloxybutanal. The reaction of this aldehyde with methyl- magnesium bromide and with methyllithium gave, after re- moval of the silyl group, meso and (2S,4S)-3-methy1-2,4- pentanediols. A study of this reaction at various temper- atures led to the conclusion that stereoselectivity can be predicted by the Cram model when methyllithium isthe reactant but not when the Grignard reagent is employed. In the latter case, a coordination model in whichmag- nesium complexes in bidentate fashion to the carbonyl and 3-oxygen atoms successfully predicts the stereochem- ical outcome.

Currently, sustainable technologies for selective conversion of alcohols utilize “green” oxidants, mainly, ambient air or oxygen. Due to the high affinity of oxygen towards silver, the latter serves as an active component of supported heterogeneous catalysts. In this review, we consider Ag-based catalysts that participate in gas- or liquid-phase oxidation of alcohols. Oxidation of methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, benzyl and allyl alcohols is mostly considered. A particular attention is paid to selective photooxidation of alcohols over Ag-based catalysts. We discuss the catalyst composition in terms of (1) the state of the active component, (2) the nature of the substrate, (3) support nature, and (4) the strength of the metal–support interactions.
