چکیده
Three new chiral Mn macrocycle catalysts containing 20 or 40 atoms in the were synthetized and tested enantioselective epoxidation of cis-β-ethyl-styrene 1,2-dihydronathalene. The effect presence a binaphtol (BINOL) compound catalyst backbone has been evaluated, including by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations.

Principal component analysis of Mn(salen) catalysts.
The theoretical study of Mn(salen) catalysts has been traditionally performed under the assumption that Mn(acacen') (acacen' = 3,3'-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azanylylidene))bis(prop-1-en-olate)) is an appropriate surrogate for the larger Mn(salen) complexes. In this work, the geometry and the electronic structure of several Mn(salen) and Mn(acacen') model complexes were studied using Density Function...
متن کاملElectronic effects in (salen)Mn-based epoxidation catalysts.
Presented are density functional calculations on various Mn(salen) systems that are active catalysts in the epoxidation of olefins. Correlation of various structural properties such as Mn=O bond strengths, atomic charges, and C-O distances of evolving bonds in transition state geometries with modified Hammett constants reveal a mechanistic picture of the epoxidation reaction, supporting previou...
متن کاملAlkene Hydrogenations by Soluble Iron Nanocluster Catalysts
The replacement of noble metal technologies and the realization of new reactivities with earth-abundant metals is at the heart of sustainable synthesis. Alkene hydrogenations have so far been most effectively performed by noble metal catalysts. This study reports an iron-catalyzed hydrogenation protocol for tri- and tetra-substituted alkenes of unprecedented activity and scope under mild condit...
متن کاملFast ( Salen ) Mn Ligand Screening
Hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods were employed to study electronic effects of 5,5'-substituents on the enantioselectivity of (salen)Mn catalysts. Correlations obtained from the QM/MM calculations elucidated electronic framework effects on enantioselectivity for (salen)Mn heterogenized in a metal-organic framework (MOF). The correlations also enabled fast ligand scree...
متن کاملAlkene Metalates as Hydrogenation Catalysts
First-row transition-metal complexes hold great potential as catalysts for hydrogenations and related reductive reactions. Homo- and heteroleptic arene/alkene metalates(1-) (M=Co, Fe) are a structurally distinct catalyst class with good activities in hydrogenations of alkenes and alkynes. The first syntheses of the heteroleptic cobaltates [K([18]crown-6)][Co(η4 -cod)(η2 -styrene)2 ] (5) and [K(...
