Efficient and chemoselective reduction of carbonyl compounds with supported gold catalysts under transfer hydrogenation conditions.

چکیده
A new heterogeneous catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) system, consisting of a non-flammable supported Au catalyst along with 2-propanol as the hydrogen donor, was proven to be effective for chemoselective reduction of a wide range of aromatic ketones and aldehydes to the corresponding alcohols.

Aqueous room-temperature gold-catalyzed chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes.
Reduction of aldehydes to the corresponding alcohols is one of the most fundamental and useful reactions that are important in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry. Among the various available reduction protocols for the synthesis of valuable hydroxy compounds, catalytic transfer hydrogenation (TH) has emerged as the most viable, mainly due to the non-involvement of highly flammable and exp...
متن کاملLow-Temperature Chemoselective Gold-Surface-Mediated Hydrogenation of Acetone and Propionaldehyde
Since nanoscale gold was first discovered to be catalytically active, gold-based catalysts have been studied both theoretically and experimentally in a wide range of reactions. These catalysts exhibit high activity for hydrogenation processes, in particular showing enhanced selectivity. However, there is a lack of relevant fundamental studies into these processes. Conducting hydrogenation react...
متن کاملAn unusual chemoselective hydrogenation of quinoline compounds using supported gold catalysts.
The pursuit of modern sustainable chemistry has stimulated the development of innovative catalytic processes that enable chemical transformations to be performed under mild and clean conditions with high efficiency. Herein, we report that gold nanoparticles supported on TiO(2) catalyze the chemoselective hydrogenation of functionalized quinolines with H(2) under mild reaction conditions. Our re...

Syntheses of four new ruthenium(II) complexes of the [RuCl(2)(P)(2)(N)(2)] type using 2-(diphenylphosphino)ethyl methyl ether (P-O) as ether-phosphine and triphenylphosphine (PPh(3)) as monodentate phosphine ligands in the presence of [3-(2-aminoethyl)aminopropyl]trimethoxysilane as diamine co-ligand are presented for the first time. The reactions were conducted at room temperature and under an...
متن کاملFully dispersed Pt entities on nano-Au dramatically enhance the activity of gold for chemoselective hydrogenation catalysis.
Adding a small amount of fully dispersed Pt entities onto the Au surface in Au/SiO(2) catalyst is found to be an efficient approach to improve the catalytic activity of Au (up to 70-fold) for the hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, without alternating its selectivity towards C=O or C=C bond hydrogenation.
