RESUMO
The diacetate complexes trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] (NN = ethylenediamine (en) (1), 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (ampy) (2), 2-(aminomethyl)pyrimidine (ampyrim) (3)) have been isolated in 76-88% yield by reaction of [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] with the corresponding nitrogen ligands. The ampy-type derivatives 2 and 3 undergo isomerization to the thermodynamically most stable cationic complexes [Ru(κ1-OAc)(PPh3)2(NN)]OAc (2a and 3a) and cis-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] (2b and 3b) in methanol at RT. The trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(P2)2] (P2 = dppm (4), dppe (5)) compounds have been synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] by reaction with the suitable diphosphine in toluene at 95 °C. The complex cis-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(dppm)(ampy)](6) has been obtained from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] and dppm in toluene at reflux and reaction with ampy. The derivatives trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2P2(NN)] (7-16; NN = en, ampy, ampyrim, 8-aminoquinoline; P2 = dppp, dppb, dppf, (R)-BINAP) can be easily synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] with a diphosphine and treatment with the NN ligands at RT. Alternatively these compounds have been prepared from trans-[Ru(OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] by reaction with the diphosphine in MEK at 50 °C. The use of (R)-BINAP affords trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2((R)-BINAP)(NN)] (NN = ampy (11), ampyrim (15)) isolated as single stereoisomers. Treatment of the ampy-type complexes 8-15 with methanol at RT leads to isomerization to the cationic derivatives [Ru(κ2-OAc)P2(NN)]OAc (8a-15a; NN = ampy, ampyrim; P2 = dppp, dppb, dppf, (R)-BINAP). Similarly to 2, the dipivalate trans-[Ru(κ1-OPiv)2(PPh3)2(ampy)] (18) is prepared from [Ru(κ2-OPiv)2(PPh3)2] (17) and ampy in CHCl3. The pincer acetate [Ru(κ1-OAc)(CNNOMe)(PPh3)2] (19) has been synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] and HCNNOMe ligand in 2-propanol with NEt3 at reflux. In addition, the dppb pincer complexes [Ru(κ1-OAc)(CNN)(dppb)] (CNN = AMTP (20), AMBQPh (21)) have been obtained from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2], dppb, and HAMTP or HAMBQPh with NEt3, respectively. The acetate NN and pincer complexes are active in transfer hydrogenation with 2-propanol and hydrogenation with H2 of carbonyl compounds at S/C values of up to 10000 and with TOF values of up to 160000 h-1.
RESUMO
Monocarbonyl complexes [RuCl2(CO)(PR3)(NN)] (R = Cy, NN = en 1, ampy 2; R = iPr; NN = en 3) have been prepared in a one pot reaction from [RuCl2(CO)(dmf)(PPh3)2], PR3 and the NN ligand in CH2Cl2. Treatment of [Ru(OAc)2(CO)(PPh3)2] with NN ligands in methanol gives the cationic derivatives [Ru(OAc)(CO)(PPh3)(NN)]OAc (NN = en 4, ampy 5) in which one acetate acts as a bidentate ligand, whereas the other is not coordinated. Diphosphine complexes [RuCl2(CO)(PP)(PPh3)] (PP = dppb 6, dppf 7, (R)-BINAP 8, (R,Sp)-Josiphos 9 and (R,R)-Skewphos 10) have been obtained starting from [RuCl2(CO)(dmf)(PPh3)2] and the PP ligand in CHCl3 or toluene at reflux. The reaction of [Ru(OAc)2(CO)(PPh3)2] with PP in CH2Cl2 or toluene affords the fluxional acetate derivatives [Ru(OAc)2(CO)(PP)] (PP = dppb 11, dppf 12, (R)-BINAP 13, and (R,R)-Skewphos 14). The cationic diphosphine complexes [RuCl(CO)(PP)(en)]Cl (PP = dppb 15, dppf 16) are prepared from [RuCl2(CO)(dmf)(PPh3)2], PP and en in CH2Cl2 or, alternatively, from [RuCl2(CO)2]n or the 6, 7 derivatives. Similarly, [Ru(OAc)(CO)(PP)(NN)]OAc (PP = dppb, NN = en 17, ampy 18; PP = dppf, NN = en 19, ampy 20) are isolated starting from [Ru(OAc)2(CO)(PPh3)2], PP and NN ligands or from 11, 12. The derivatives [Ru(OAc)2(CO)(PP)] show a fluxional behavior in solution as the result of the flexible coordination of acetate ligands. These complexes are found to be active in the transfer hydrogenation and hydrogenation of ketones and aldehydes, including furfural derivatives, at an S/C up to 10 000 and a TOF up to 18 000 h-1.
RESUMO
In the presence of an allyl alcohol, α-chloroacetophenones undergo an allyloxycarbonylation reaction followed by in situ decarboxylative allylation to selectively afford the corresponding monoallylated ketones via a Pd-catalyzed domino sequence. The scope of the reaction was extended to substituted α-chloroacetophenones as well as various allyl alcohols.
