Catalytic Carbonylation Reactions

VII-F Development of New Carbonylation Reactions

Catalytic reactions which involve the cleavage of an sp3 C–H bond adjacent to a nitrogen atom in N-2pyridynyl alkylamines are described. The use of Ru3(CO)12 as the catalyst results in the addition of the sp3 C–H bond across alkene bond to give the coupling products. A variety of alkenes, including terminal, internal, and cyclic alkenes, can be used for the coupling reaction. The presence of di...

Enantioselective desymmetrizing palladium catalyzed carbonylation reactions: the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of quaternary carbon center containing 1,3-dienes.

A desymmetrization protocol has been used to develop a palladium catalyzed enantioselective carbonylation process. Achiral cyclic bis-alkenyltriflates are converted to their corresponding monoester derivatives with selectivities of up to 96% ee.

[C]Carbon Monoxide in Rhodium-/Palladium-Mediated Carbonylation Reactions

Gas-Solid Catalytic Reactions

The outline of this chapter is as follows: *.1 will show some application areas together with the number of types of reactors available for carrying out gas-solid catalyzed reactions. Section *.2 will focus on the kinetic models suitable for describing these reactions. Section *.3 will show how to set up the reactor models and will also show the mass transport interactions need to be modeled. T...

Chelation-assisted carbonylation reactions catalyzed by Rh and Ru complexes*

This account reviews chelation-assisted carbonylation reactions catalyzed by late transition metals. New carbonylation reactions are achieved with these catalysts in the presence of pyridin-2-ylmethanol and pyridin-2-ylmethylamine. The reactions involve activation of O−H and N−H bonds, coordination of the pyridine nitrogen to Rh being essential for the reaction to proceed. In addition, a new ty...
