Cobalt-Catalyzed Asymmetric Addition of Silylacetylenes to 1,1-Disubstituted Allenes
The
asymmetric addition of silylacetylenes to 1,1-disubstituted
allenes proceeded in the presence of a cobalt/chiral bisphosphine
ligand to give the corresponding enynes with high enantioselectivity.
The results of deuterium-labeling experiments indicated that a hydrogen
atom at the chiral center is originated from the terminal alkyne,
and they were in good agreement with the proposed catalytic cycle
where enantioselectivity is determined by the reaction of the proposed
Ď€-allylcobalt intermediate with the terminal alkyne
Cobalt-Catalyzed Asymmetric 1,6-Addition of (Triisopropylsilyl)-acetylene to α,β,γ,δ-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds
Asymmetric addition of (triisopropylsilyl)Âacetylene to
α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated
carbonyl compounds took place in the presence of a cobalt/Duphos catalyst
to give the 1,6-addition products in high yields with high regio-
and enantioselectivity
Formation of Carbocycles via a 1,4-Rh Shift Triggered by a Rhodium-Catalyzed Addition of Terminal Alkynes to 3,3-Diarylcyclopropenes
The catalytic addition of terminal
alkynes to 3,3-diarylcyclopropenes
in the presence of a RhÂ(I)/binap complex proceeded to give the cycloaddition
products in good yields, where a 1,4-Rh shift is involved as a key
step
Robust, Chiral, and Porous BINAP-Based Metal–Organic Frameworks for Highly Enantioselective Cyclization Reactions
We
report here the design of BINAP-based metal–organic frameworks
and their postsynthetic metalation with Rh complexes to afford highly
active and enantioselective single-site solid catalysts for the asymmetric
cyclization reactions of 1,6-enynes. Robust, chiral, and porous Zr-MOFs
of UiO topology, BINAP-MOF (<b>I</b>) or BINAP-dMOF (<b>II</b>), were prepared using purely BINAP-derived dicarboxylate linkers
or by mixing BINAP-derived linkers with unfunctionalized dicarboxylate
linkers, respectively. Upon metalation with RhÂ(nbd)<sub>2</sub>BF<sub>4</sub> and [RhÂ(nbd)ÂCl]<sub>2</sub>/AgSbF<sub>6</sub>, the MOF precatalysts <b>I</b>·RhÂ(BF<sub>4</sub>) and <b>I</b>·RhÂ(SbF<sub>6</sub>) efficiently catalyzed highly enantioselective (up to 99%
ee) reductive cyclization and Alder-ene cycloisomerization of 1,6-enynes,
respectively. <b>I</b>·Rh catalysts afforded cyclization
products at comparable enantiomeric excesses (ee’s) and 4–7
times higher catalytic activity than the homogeneous controls, likely
a result of catalytic site isolation in the MOF which prevents bimolecular
catalyst deactivation pathways. However, <b>I</b>·Rh is
inactive in the more sterically encumbered Pauson–Khand reactions
between 1,6-enynes and carbon monoxide. In contrast, with a more open
structure, Rh-functionalized BINAP-dMOF, <b>II</b>·Rh,
effectively catalyzed Pauson–Khand cyclization reactions between
1,6-enynes and carbon monoxide at 10 times higher activity than the
homogeneous control. <b>II</b>·Rh was readily recovered
and used three times in Pauson–Khand cyclization reactions
without deterioration of yields or ee’s. Our work has expanded
the scope of MOF-catalyzed asymmetric reactions and showed that the
mixed linker strategy can effectively enlarge the open space around
the catalytic active site to accommodate highly sterically demanding
polycyclic metallocycle transition states/intermediates in asymmetric
intramolecular cyclization reactions

Metal–Organic Frameworks Stabilize Mono(phosphine)–Metal Complexes for Broad-Scope Catalytic Reactions
MonoÂ(phosphine)–M
(M–PR<sub>3</sub>; M = Rh and Ir)
complexes selectively prepared by postsynthetic metalation of a porous
triarylphosphine-based metal–organic framework (MOF) exhibited
excellent activity in the hydrosilylation of ketones and alkenes,
the hydrogenation of alkenes, and the C–H borylation of arenes.
The recyclable and reusable MOF catalysts significantly outperformed
their homogeneous counterparts, presumably via stabilizing M–PR<sub>3</sub> intermediates by preventing deleterious disproportionation
reactions/ligand exchanges in the catalytic cycles
Cerium-Hydride Secondary Building Units in a Porous Metal–Organic Framework for Catalytic Hydroboration and Hydrophosphination
We report the stepwise, quantitative
transformation of Ce<sup>IV</sup><sub>6</sub>(ÎĽ<sub>3</sub>-O)<sub>4</sub>(ÎĽ<sub>3</sub>-OH)<sub>4</sub>Â(OH)<sub>6</sub>(OH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>6</sub> nodes in a new Ce-BTC (BTC = trimesic
acid) metal–organic
framework (MOF) into the first Ce<sup>III</sup><sub>6</sub>(ÎĽ<sub>3</sub>-O)<sub>4</sub>(ÎĽ<sub>3</sub>-OLi)<sub>4</sub>(H)<sub>6</sub>(THF)<sub>6</sub>Li<sub>6</sub> metal-hydride nodes that effectively
catalyze hydroboration and hydrophosphination reactions. CeH-BTC displays
low steric hindrance and electron density compared to homogeneous
organolanthanide catalysts, which likely accounts for the unique 1,4-regioselectivity
for the hydroboration of pyridine derivatives. MOF nodes can thus
be directly transformed into novel single-site solid catalysts without
homogeneous counterparts for sustainable chemical synthesis
Privileged Phosphine-Based Metal–Organic Frameworks for Broad-Scope Asymmetric Catalysis
A robust and porous Zr metal–organic
framework (MOF) based
on a BINAP-derived dicarbÂoxylÂate linker, BINAP-MOF, was
synthesized and post-synthetically metalated with Ru and Rh complexes
to afford highly enantioÂselective catalysts for important organic
transformations. The Rh-functionalized MOF is not only highly enantioÂselective
(up to >99% ee) but also 3 times as active as the homogeneous control.
XAFS studies revealed that the Ru-functionalized MOF contains Ru-BINAP
preÂcatalysts with the same coordination environment as the homogeneous
Ru complex. The post-synthetically metalated BINAP-MOFs provide a
versatile family of single-site solid catalysts for catalyzing a broad
scope of asymmetric organic transformations, including addition of
aryl and alkyl groups to α,β-unsaturated ketones and hydrogenation
of substituted alkene and carbonyl compounds
