SPRING 2015 No. 7 16 Ruth and Uri Arnon A legacy of scientiﬁc discovery 10 Spotlight on Dimitris Chorafas 40 Major league magnets From the President Dear Friends, This is a special issue of Weizmann Magazine as it has a new “app” that will allow you to read issue after issue by pulling it from a virtual bookshelf on your device. It is also a special issue because our cover story high- lights the quintessential Weizmann Institute couple: Prof. Ruth and Dr. Uriel Arnon, who recently gave a transformational gift for the establishment of the Ruth and Uriel Arnon Science Education Campus adjacent to the Weizmann Institute. Ruth’s career in science touches so many aspects of what the best possible science is all about—discovery and commercializa- tion, a commitment to the next generation of scientific leaders, and investment at a national level to ensure the vibrancy of science and technology for all of Israel. In this issue, you will also read about a major area of new emphasis, nuclear magnetic resonance research. This area is enabling scientists from a variety of fields to watch biological processes in action at super-high resolution, and examine and refine non-biological phenomena such as artificial nano-materials like never before. It is a new horizon and The Weizmann Institute has historically led in this field and recently recruited several young scientists who will enable us to move forward, in a dramatic way, in NMR. Last but not least: This year we are celebrating 50 years Credits since the establishment of diplomatic relations between Israel and Germany, a relationship that was, in great part, an A publication of the Department of Resource outgrowth of scientific ties between the Weizmann Institute Development and the Department of Media Relations and the Max Planck Society.

IAS Distinguished Lecture Design and Applications of Catalytic Reactions for Sustainable Synthesis and Energy ProfessorProfessor DavidDavid MilsteinMilstein The Israel Matz Professorial Chair of Organic Chemistry Department of Organic Chemistry The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel Date : 23 January 2019 (Wednesday) Time : 4:30pm – 6:00pm ( ) Venue : Connie Fan Multi-media Conference Room, 4/F, Cheng Yick-chi Building City University of Hong Kong AbstractAbstract The design of ”green” synthetic methodology and new approaches to sustainable energy are major goals of modern catalysis. Traditionally, catalysis by metal complexes has been based on the reactivity of the metal center, while the ligands bound to it influence its reactivity, but do not interact directly with the substrate. In a major advance in homogeneous catalysis, complexes based on “cooperating” ligands were developed, in which both the metal and ligand undergo bond making and breaking in key steps of the catalytic cycle, thus providing exciting opportunities for catalytic design. We have developed a new mode of metal-ligand cooperation, involving ligand aromatization – dearomatization, which provides a new approach to the activation of chemical bonds. Pincer-type complexes of several transition metals exhibit such cooperation, including complexes of Ru, Fe, Co, Rh, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt, Mn and Re. This has led to fundamentally new, environmentally benign catalytic reactions, including several reactions which either produce dihydrogen or consume it. Synthetic and energy-relaed applications based on these reactions will be described.

Compared with most previous reports for this transformation, which use high − ° − temperatures (typically, 100 200 C) and H2 pressures (10 100 bar), this system proceeds under extremely mild conditions (RT, 5−10 bar of ﬁ H2). The hydrogenation is catalyzed by well-de ned ruthenium-PNNH pincer complexes (0.5 mol %) with potential dual modes of metal−ligand cooperation. An unusual Ru-amidate complex was formed and crystallo- graphically characterized. Mechanistic investigations indicate that the room-temperature hydrogenation proceeds predominantly via the Ru−N amido/amine metal−ligand cooperation.

Using a green and sustainable approach based on hydrogenation, in the presence of a ruthenium ° ﬁ pincer catalyst at 150 C and 70 bar H2, we report here the rst example of hydrogenative depolymerization of conventional, widely used nylons and polyamides, in general. Under the same catalytic conditions, we also demonstrate the hydrogenation of a polyurethane to produce diol, diamine, and methanol. Additionally, we demonstrate an example where monomers (and oligomers) obtained from the hydrogenation process can be dehydrogenated back to a poly(oligo)amide of approximately similar molecular weight, thus completing a closed loop cycle for recycling of polyamides. Based on the experimental and density functional theory studies, we propose a catalytic cycle for the process that is facilitated by metal−ligand cooperativity. Overall, this unprecedented trans-
