Intramolecular hydroalkoxylation catalyzed inside a self-assembled cavity of an enzyme-like host structure.

چکیده
Self-assembled resorcin[4]arene hexamer catalyzes the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of unsaturated alcohols to the corresponding cyclic ethers under mild conditions. The mode of catalysis and encapsulation-based substrate selectivity of the host efficiently mimic the basic principle of operation observed in enzymes.

Hydroalkoxylation catalyzed by a gold(I) complex encapsulated in a supramolecular host.
Gold(I)-phosphine complexes are readily encapsulated by a tetrahedral supramolecular host (Ga(4)L(6)). We have investigated the catalytic activity of the resulting complexes for the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of allenes. The catalytic activity of Me(3)PAuBr was increased 8-fold by encapsulation, as determined by initial rate kinetics, and we observed up to 67 catalytic turnovers by Me(3)P...
متن کاملGold(I)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Desymmetrization of 1,3-Diols through Intramolecular Hydroalkoxylation of Allenes.
A gold(I)-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetrization of 1,3-diols was achieved by intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of allenes. The catalyst system 3-F-dppe(AuCl)2/(R)-C8-TRIPAg proved to be specifically efficient to promote the desymmetrizing cyclization of 2-aryl-1,3-diols, which have proven challenging substrates in previous reports. Multisubstituted tetrahydrofurans were prepared in good yi...
متن کاملAnti-addition mechanism in the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of alkenes catalyzed by PVP-stabilized nanogold.
(1R*,4S*,4aR*,9aS*,10S*)-10-Hydroxy-10-phenyl-1,4a,9a,10-tetrahydro-1,4-methanoanthracen-9(4H)-one (1c) was prepared for the elucidation of the reaction mechanism of intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of alkenes catalyzed by gold nanoclusters stabilized by a hydrophilic polymer, poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (Au:PVP). It was found that the reaction proceeded via anti-addition of alcohol to the alke...
متن کاملEngineering Nano-aggregates: β-Cyclodextrin Facilitates the Thiol-Gold Nanoparticle Self-Assembly
The structure and morphology of nonmaterial formed by colloidal synthesis represent a subject of interest as it is a factor deciding the physicochemical properties and biological applications of nanostructures. Among various nanoparticles, gold can develop fractal assembled patterns. Herein, we report a nano-aggregate of a thiol-on-gold self-assembled structure and the influence of β-cyclodextr...
متن کاملCalcium Chloride catalyzed Intramolecular Oxa Michael addition of 2’-Hydroxychalcone to Flavanone
An efficient cyclization of 2’-hydroxychalcone to flavanone using calcium chloride as a catalyst was developed. The scope of the reaction was studied with substituted 2’-hydroxychalcone and these chalcones was converted into corresponding flavanone in good yield. The merits of this method are inexpensive and easily available catalyst, easy workup procedure, avoid use of toxic solvent
