چکیده

Initiation rates for Grubbs and Grubbs-Hoveyda second generation pre-catalysts have been measured accurately in a range of solvents. Solvatochromic fitting reveals different dependencies on key solvent parameters for the two pre-catalysts, consistent with different mechanisms by which the Grubbs and Grubbs-Hoveyda pre-catalysts initiate.

What is the initiation step of the Grubbs-Hoveyda olefin metathesis catalyst?

Density function theory calculations reveal that the Grubbs-Hoveyda olefin metathesis pre-catalyst is activated by the formation of a complex in which the incoming alkene substrate and outgoing alkoxy ligand are both clearly associated with the ruthenium centre. The computed energies for reaction are in good agreement with the experimental values, reported here.

What is the initiation step of the Grubbs-Hoveyda olefin metathesis catalyst?w

The ground-breaking advances in catalytic olefin metathesis by Grubbs and others have revolutionized many aspects of organic synthesis, ensuring a high general level of interest in the key metal alkylidene catalysts. The mechanism of ruthenium-mediated olefin metathesis catalysed by first (1a) and second generation (1b) Grubbs complexes has been extensively studied both by experiment and by com...

A materials approach to site-isolation of Grubbs catalysts from incompatible solvents and m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid.

The development of a method for site-isolation of Grubbs second-generation catalyst from MCPBA is described. In these reactions, Grubbs catalyst was dissolved in a solvent consisting of a mixture (1:1 v/v) of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate and methylene chloride and completely encapsulated within a thimble fabricated from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). A series of molecules that ...

New selectivities from old catalysts. Occlusion of Grubbs’ catalysts in PDMS to change their reactions

This article describes new selectivities for Grubbs’ first and second generation catalysts when occluded in a hydrophobic matrix of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Occlusion of catalysts in mm-sized slabs of PDMS is accomplished by swelling with methylene chloride then removing the solvent under vacuum. The catalysts are homogenously dissolved in PDMS yet remain catalytically active. Many substrat...

Design of Heterogeneous Hoveyda-Grubbs Second-Generation Catalyst-Lipase Conjugates.

Heterogeneous catalysts have been synthesi zed by the conjugation of Hoveyda-Grubbs second-generation catalyst with a lipase. The catalytic properties of the organometallic compound in solution were firstly optimized, evaluating the activity of Ru in the ring-closing metathesis of diethyldiallymalonate at 25 °C at different solvents and in the presence of different additives. The best result wa...
