A GENERAL APPROACH TO CIS-FUSED SESQUITERPENE QUINONES Hilan Z. Kaplan Thesis Advisor: Jason S. Kingsbury Abstract Chapter 1. Sesquiterpene quinones are a prolific class of marine natural products that are particularly interesting due to their antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inhibitory properties. Hundreds of these biologically active molecules are based on decalin frameworks, both cis- as well as trans-fused, however, significantly less synthetic work has focused on targeting the cis- fused series of compounds. In this chapter, progress towards an asymmetric, general route to various sesquiterpene quinones in the cleordane family of natural products will be described. The key steps of the synthesis include a highly convergent and diastereoselective reductive alkylation to forge both the requisite cis-ring fusion well as the all carbon quaternary center, as well as a scandium-catalyzed ring expansion of a 6,5-ring system to deliver the decalin core of the molecule. Additionally, the chapter includes the development and substrate scope of both methodologies utilized in the key complexity building reactions. SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, AND CATALYTIC APPLICATIONS OF BIS(IMINO)-N-HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE COMPLEXES OF IRON Hilan Z. Kaplan Thesis Advisor: Jeffery A. Byers Abstract Chapter 2. Iron complexes ligated by bis(imino)pyridine ligands are remarkably active catalysts for a vast range of organic transformations including polymerization, hydrogenation, hydrosilylation, and hydroboration. Whereas much work has been done to probe the importance of the imine-substituents on catalysis, significantly less information is known about the nature of the central pyridine donor. To study the effects of a more donating ligand in which the pyridine is replaced with an N-heterocyclic carbene, a series of novel ligands and their corresponding iron complexes were synthesized and characterized. Whereas imidazole-derived complexes exhibited exclusively bidentate binding modes, 4,5,6-trihydropyrimidylidene-based ligands adopted a tridentate pincer conformation analogous to complexes of bis(imino)pyridines. Bonding in the five-coordinate bis(imino)-N-heterocyclic carbene complex displayed considerably contracted iron−ligand bond distances compared to the analogous bis(imino)pyridine iron complex. Chapter 3. The study of physical and electronic structure and bonding in organometallic compounds is a critical for understanding and predicting complex behavior and reactivity. Having synthesized a completely new type of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand and the corresponding iron complex, a rigorous study of metal−NHC bonding, magnetism, and redox activity in bis(imino)-NHC (or carbenodiimine, CDI) complexes of iron was carried out. A series of oxidation and reduction reactions on CDI complexes of iron were performed, enabling access to complexes spanning from formally iron(0) to iron (III) oxidation states. A battery of spectroscopic and computational methods, including X-ray crystallography, Mössbauer spectroscopy, SQUID magnetometry, and EPR spectroscopy established the CDI ligand as a redox active chelator. Additionally, a unique iron−carbene interaction was discovered, in which the metal center antiferromagnetically couples with the carbon of the NHC. Chapter 4. Intent on developing CDI complexes of iron into practical catalysts for both synthetic organic transformations and polymerization, a series of stoichiometric as well as catalytic reactions were carried out to evaluate the reactivity profile of the novel complexes. Halide atom abstraction generated a new cationic species, which demonstrated different coordination chemistry compared to the bis(imino)pyridine analogue. Furthermore, the addition of a hydride or alkyl lithium reagent to the parent (CDI)FeCl2 species resulted in interesting and unexpected reactivity involving the carbene ligand. Preliminary catalytic hydrogenation experiments established (CDI)FeCl2 as a competent catalyst for the reduction of simple alkenes in the presence of Na(Hg) as a reductant under 80 psi of hydrogen. Additionally, the dichloride species could be readily converted into bis(aryloxide) complexes that were active for the polymerization of lactide to produce poly(lactic acid). The polymerization is very controlled (PDI values are < 1.3), and polymers with molecular weights of around 35 kDa can be obtained after 3 hours at room temperature.

Functionalisable Cyclopolymers by Ring-Closing Metathesis Mohammed Alkattan BSc, MSc Drug Chemistry A thesis submitted at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Glasgow for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 Abstract Post‐polymerisation modification of polymers is extremely beneficial in terms of designing brand new synthetic pathways toward functional complex polymers. While many chemical groups could provide a platform for chemical functionalisation, arguably one of the most versatile groups is the olefin functionality. This could be significant as the olefins do not readily interfere with common polymerisation techniques such as ring-opening polymerisation (ROP) but can be transformed into a broad range of functional groups. Ring-Closing Metathesis (RCM) is a powerful method for the preparation of cyclic compounds by the formation of new carbon- carbon double bonds.

  • 2.1 the 18-ELECTRON RULE the 18E Rule1 Is a Way to Help Us Decide
    30 GENERAL PROPERTIES OF ORGANOMETALLIC COMPLEXES 2.1 THE 18-ELECTRON RULE The 18e rule1 is a way to help us decide whether a given d-block transition metal organometallic complex is likely to be stable. Not all the organic formulas we can write down correspond to stable species. For example, CH5 requires a 5-valent carbon and is therefore not stable. Stable compounds, such as CH4,have the noble gas octet, and so carbon can be thought of as following an 8e rule. This corresponds to carbon using its s and three p orbitals to form four filled bonding orbitals and four unfilled antibonding orbitals. On the covalent model, we can consider that of the eight electrons required to fill the bonding orbitals, four come from carbon and one each comes from the four H substituents. We can therefore think of each H atom as being a 1e ligand to carbon. To assign a formal oxidation state to carbon in an organic molecule, we impose an ionic model by artificially dissecting it into ions. Each electron pair in any bond is assigned to the most electronegative of the two atoms or groups that constitute the bond. For methane, this dissection gives C4− + 4H+, with carbon as the more electronegative element. This makes methane an 8e compound with an oxidation state of −4, usually written C(-IV). Note that the net electron count always remains the same, whether we adopt the covalent (4e {Catom}+4 × 1e {4H atoms}=8e) or ionic (8e{C4−ion}+4 × 0e{4H+ions}=8e) model.

Park Dr. David Giles 1 Abstract The synthesis of substituted phenylpropene dimers using a one-pot, tandem olefin metathesis and isomerization sequence has been studied. This sequence relies on the facilitated, in-situ conversion of a ruthenium carbene species (Ru=C) to a ruthenium hydride species (Ru-H) upon addition of an inorganic hydride source. Three separate reactions occur within one reaction flask: 1) olefin metathesis of the starting phenylpropene to yield phenylpropene dimer via Ru=C catalyst, 2) conversion of Ru=C to Ru-H via addition of an inorganic hydride source, 3) isomerization of phenylpropene dimer via insertion and β-hydride elimination to yield conjugated product.

  • Chapter 1 the Basic Chemistry of Organopalladium Compounds
    Chapter 1 The Basic Chemistry of Organopalladium Compounds 1.1 Characteristic Features of Pd-Promoted or -Catalyzed Reactions There are several features which make reactions involving Pd catalysts and reagents particularly useful and versatile among many transition metals used for organic synthesis. Most importantly, Pd catalysts offer an abundance of possibilities of carbon–carbon bond formation. Importance of the carbon–carbon bond forma- tion in organic synthesis needs no explanation. No other transition metals can offer such versatile methods of the carbon–carbon bond formations as Pd. Tol- erance of Pd catalysts and reagents to many functional groups such as carbonyl and hydroxy groups is the second important feature. Pd-catalyzed reactions can be carried out without protection of these functional groups. Although reactions involving Pd should be carried out carefully, Pd reagents and catalysts are not very sensitive to oxygen and moisture, and even to acid in many reactions catalyzed by Pd–phosphine complexes. It is enough to apply precautions to avoid oxidation of coordinated phosphines, and this can be done easily. On the other hand, the Ni(0) complex is extremely sensitive to oxygen. Of course, Pd is a noble metal and expensive. Its price frequently fluctuates drastically. A few years ago, Pd was more expensive than Pt and Au but cheaper than Rh. As of October 2003, the comparative prices of the noble metals were: Pd (1), Au (1.8), Rh (2.8), Pt (3.3), Ru (0.2). Recently the price of Pd has dropped dramatically, and Pt is currently the most expensive noble metal. Also, the toxicity of Pd has posed no serious problem so far.
