Instantaneous carbon-carbon bond formation using a microchannel reactor with a catalytic membrane.

Instantaneous catalytic carbon-carbon bond forming reactions were achieved in a microchannel reactor having a polymeric palladium complex membrane. The catalytic membrane was constructed inside the microchannel via self-assembling complexation at the interface between the organic and aqueous phases flowing laminarly, where non-cross-linked polymer-bound phosphine and ammonium tetrachloropalladate dissolved, respectively. A palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of aryl halides and arylboronic acids was performed using the microchannel reactor to give quantitative yields of biaryls within 4 s of retention time in the defined channel region.

A solid-phase self-organized catalyst of nanopalladium with main-chain viologen polymers: alpha-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols.

[reaction: see text] A novel solid-phase self-organized catalyst of palladium nanoparticles was prepared from PdCl(2) with main-chain viologen polymers via complexation and reduction. This insoluble nanocatalyst nano-Pd-V efficiently promoted alpha-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols in the presence of Ba(OH)(2).H(2)O under atmospheric conditions without organic solvents. The nano-Pd-V catalyst was reused without loss of catalytic activity.

Total synthesis and structural elucidation of azaspiracid-1. Final assignment and total synthesis of the correct structure of azaspiracid-1.

The molecular structure of azaspiracid-1, a neurotoxin isolated from mussels, has been elucidated by total synthesis which also enriched its supplies. The degradatively derived fragments of this marine biotoxin, compounds 5 (EFGHI), 6 (FGHI), and 40 (ABCD), were matched with synthetic materials, thus confirming their structural identities. Based on this detective work, a new structure of azaspiracid-1 (i.e., 1) was proposed and constructed by total synthesis. The final strategy for the total synthesis of azaspiracid-1 featured a dithiane anion (C(21)-C(27) fragment) reacting with a pentafluorophenol ester (C(1)-C(20) fragment) followed by a Stille-type union of an advanced allylic acetate substrate (C(1)-C(27) fragment) with a vinyl stannane as the main coupling processes to assemble the carbon skeleton of the molecule. In addition to the total synthesis of azaspiracid-1 (1), the syntheses of its C(1)-C(20) epimer (2) and of several truncated analogues for biological investigations are described.

Self-assembled complexes of non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymeric ligands with inorganic species: highly active and reusable solid-phase polymeric catalysts.

I present herein the development of highly active and reusable polymeric catalysts produced by self-assembly process of non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymeric ligands with inorganic species. Thus, PWAA 1 prepared from H3PW12O40 and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-(acrylamide with ammonium salt)] is suitable for oxidation of alcohols, amines, and sulfides in aqueous hydrogen peroxide. PdAS 2 produced by self-organization of (NH4)2PdCl4 and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)10-co-diphenylphosphinostyrene] is an excellent recyclable catalyst for Suzuki-Miyaura reaction in water, water-organic solvent, and organic solvent. It is commercially available from Tokyo Kasei Kogyo (TCI). PdAS-V 3 assembled from (NH4)2PdCl4 and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)5-co-diphenylphosphinostyrene] provides recycling system of itself for Mizorogi-Heck reaction. TiSS 4 made from Ti(O-i-Pr)4 and poly(styryl-linked binaphtholate-co-styrene) promotes an enantioselective carbonyl-ene reaction as a recyclable catalyst.

[Development of novel solid-phase polymeric catalysts for organic syntheses].

Highly active and reusable polymeric catalysts were produced by a self-assembly process of non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymeric ligands with inorganic species. Thus a new insoluble tungsten polymeric catalyst PWAA 1 was prepared from H(3)PW(12)O(40) and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-(acrylamide with ammonium salt)], which was suitable for the oxidation of alcohols, amines, and sulfides in aqueous hydrogen peroxide. A new insoluble palladium polymeric catalyst PdAS 2 was produced by self-organization of (NH(4))(2)PdCl(4) and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)(10)-co-diphenylphosphinostyrene], which is an excellent recyclable catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction in water, water-organic solvents, and organic solvents. It is commercially available from Tokyo Kasei Kogyo (TCI). An improved insoluble palladium polymeric catalyst PdAS-V 3 was assembled from (NH(4))(2)PdCl(4) and poly[(N-isopropylacrylamide)(5)-co-diphenylphosphinostyrene], providing a reusable system for the Mizorogi-Heck reaction. A solid-phase titanium asymmetric polymeric catalyst TiSS 4 was made from Ti (O-i-Pr)(4) and poly(styryl-linked binaphtholate-co-styrene) which promotes an enantioselective carbonyl-ene reaction as a recyclable catalyst.

Highly active catalyst for the heterogeneous Suzuki-Miyaura reaction: assembled complex of palladium and non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymer.

An assembled insoluble catalyst, PdAS, prepared from palladium ((NH4)2PdCl4 (1)) and non-cross-linked amphiphilic copolymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-4-diphenylstyrylphosphine) (2) was developed. It was found that PdAS is an excellent catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction on three points: (1) The use of 8 x 10(-7) to 5 x 10(-4) mol equiv of PdAS afforded the coupling products efficiently after easy workup, with the turnover number reaching up to 1,250,000. (2) The catalyst was reusable many times without loss of catalytic activity. (3) PdAS showed good stability in any reaction medium (i.e., water or aqueous or anhydrous organic solvents). Analytical study of PdAS indicates that the phosphines in 2 coordinate to palladium to form PdCl2(PPh2Ar)2 species.

An assembled complex of palladium and non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymer: a highly active and recyclable catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction.

An insoluble and assembled catalyst of palladium and a non-cross-linked amphiphilic polymer were developed. In the presence of 50-500 ppm mol equiv of catalyst, the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction proceeded efficiently under organic solvent-free conditions. The catalyst was reused 10 times without any decrease in activity and was recycled without any special treatment.[structure: see text]
