Bimetallic Copper-Heme-Protein-DNA Hybrid Catalyst for Diels Alder Reaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
A bimetallic heme-DNA cofactor, containing an iron and a copper center, was synthesized for the design of novel hybrid catalysts for stereoselective synthesis. The cofactor was used for the reconstitution of apo-myoglobin. Both the cofactor alone and its myoglobin adduct were used to catalyze a model Diels Alder reaction. Stereoselectivity of this conversion was analyzed by chiral HPLC. Reactions carried out in the presence of myoglobin-heme-Cu-DNA catalyst showed greater product conversion and stereoselectivity than those carried out with the heme-Cu-DNA cofactor. This observation suggested that the protein shell plays a significant role in the catalytic conversion.(doi: 10.5562/cca1828)

Aqueous Ti(IV)-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction.
The aqueous Diels-Alder reaction of 1,3-cyclohexadiene with 1,4-benzoquinone was compared and contrasted to the same reaction catalyzed with Flextyl P, a novel Ti(IV) performance catalyst. The catalyst improved conversion by 22% versus the uncatalyzed reaction and represents a rare example of a Ti(IV) catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction in water.
متن کاملDiels–Alder reactions in confined spaces: the influence of catalyst structure and the nature of active sites for the retro-Diels–Alder reaction
Diels-Alder cycloaddition between cyclopentadiene and p-benzoquinone has been studied in the confined space of a pure silica zeolite Beta and the impact on reaction rate due to the concentration effect within the pore and diffusion limitations are discussed. Introduction of Lewis or Brønsted acid sites on the walls of the zeolite strongly increases the reaction rate. However, contrary to what o...
متن کاملOrganic co-solvents in aqueous DNA-based asymmetric catalysis.
Water-miscible organic co-solvents can be used in DNA-based catalytic asymmetric reactions at appreciable concentration without a negative effect on enantioselectivity. While the rate of the copper(II) Diels-Alder reaction is affected negatively by the presence of organic co-solvents, the copper(II) catalyzed Michael addition and Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction are significantly faster. Addi...

Renewable production of p-xylene from [4 + 2] Diels− Alder cycloaddition of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) and ethylene with H−Y zeolite catalyst in n-heptane solvent is investigated. Experimental studies varying the solid acid catalyst concentration reveal two kinetic regimes for the p-xylene production rate: (i) a linear regime at low acid site concentrations with activation energy Ea = 10.8 kcal/mo...
