Item Open Access Highly active cooperative Lewis acid : ammonium salt catalyst for the enantioselective hydroboration of ketones(2021) Titze, Marvin; Heitkämper, Juliane; Junge, Thorsten; Kästner, Johannes; Peters, RenéEnantiopure secondary alcohols are fundamental high‐value synthetic building blocks. One of the most attractive ways to get access to this compound class is the catalytic hydroboration. We describe a new concept for this reaction type that allowed for exceptional catalytic turnover numbers (up to 15 400), which were increased by around 1.5-3 orders of magnitude compared to the most active catalysts previously reported. In our concept an aprotic ammonium halide moiety cooperates with an oxophilic Lewis acid within the same catalyst molecule. Control experiments reveal that both catalytic centers are essential for the observed activity. Kinetic, spectroscopic and computational studies show that the hydride transfer is rate limiting and proceeds via a concerted mechanism, in which hydride at Boron is continuously displaced by iodide, reminiscent to an SN2 reaction. The catalyst, which is accessible in high yields in few steps, was found to be stable during catalysis, readily recyclable and could be reused 10 times still efficiently working.Item Open Access Structural characterization of surface immobilized platinum hydrides by sensitivity-enhanced 195Pt solid state NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations(2024) Atterberry, Benjamin A.; Wimmer, Erik J.; Klostermann, Sina; Frey, Wolfgang; Kästner, Johannes; Estes, Deven P.; Rossini, Aaron J.Supported single-site platinum hydride compounds are promising heterogeneous catalysts for organic transformations. Few methods exist to describe the structures of single-site Pt catalysts with atomic resolution because of their disordered structures and low Pt loadings. Here, we study the compounds formed when bis(tri-tert-butylphosphino)platinum, Pt(PtBu3)2, is supported on dehydroxylated SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3. First, we obtain magic angle spinning (MAS) 1H, 31P and 195Pt ssNMR spectra of four model Pt phosphine compounds with oxidation states of 0 or +2 and coordination numbers between 2 and 4. These compounds are analogs of potential structures present in the supported compounds. MAS 195Pt ssNMR spectra were obtained using 31P{195Pt} sideband selective J-resolved and J-HMQC experiments. The measured 1H and 31P chemical shifts, 31P-195Pt J-couplings and 195Pt chemical shift (CS) tensors are shown to be diagnostic of oxidation state and coordination number. Room temperature 1H ssNMR spectra of Pt(PtBu3)2 supported on SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3 show diagnostic hydride NMR signals, suggesting that Pt(PtBu3)2 undergoes oxidative addition, resulting in surface hydrides and Pt–oxygen bonds to the support surface. MAS dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enables 31P{195Pt} correlation NMR experiments on the supported compounds. These experiments enable the measurement of the 31P-195Pt J-coupling constants and 195Pt CS tensors. Combined NMR and DFT analyses suggest that the primary surface platinum species are [HPt(PtBu3)2OSi] on SiO2 and [HPt(PtBu3)2]+[Si-O--Al] on SiO2-Al2O3. The Pt-oxygen bond length is dependent on the support and estimated as 2.1-2.3 Å and 2.7-3.0 Å for SiO2 and SiO2-Al2O3, respectively.Item Open Access A sodium bis(perfluoropinacol) borate-based electrolyte for stable, high-performance room temperature sodium-sulfur batteries based on sulfurized poly(acrylonitrile)(2021) Murugan, Saravanakumar; Klostermann, Sina V.; Frey, Wolfgang; Kästner, Johannes; Buchmeiser, Michael R.A new type of electrolyte salt based on a weakly coordinating anion (Na-PPB) for RT Na-SPAN batteries has been developed. Na-PPB was synthesized in bulk via a one-pot reaction. NMR spectroscopy reveals high purity of the salt and stability even under ambient atmospheric conditions. Single-crystal X-ray analysis confirmed the molecular structure of Na-PPB with Na+ coordinated by one DME molecule. The electrolyte containing Na-PPB with PC + 10 wt% FEC showed high oxidative stability on Al current collector exceeding 5.5 V. In a Na-SPAN cell, the Na-PPB electrolyte allows for an initial and final discharge capacity (500 cycles) of 1140 mAh/gsulfur and 965 mAh/gsulfur respectively, obtained at 2C (3.35 A/gsulfur). The excellent electrochemical performance and good chemical stability of Na-PPB offers access to the design of novel electrolyte salts for RT Na-SPAN batteries.Item Open Access Cooperative Lewis acid‐1,2,3‐triazolium‐aryloxide catalysis : pyrazolone addition to nitroolefins as entry to diaminoamides(2023) Wanner, Daniel M.; Becker, Patrick M.; Suhr, Simon; Wannenmacher, Nick; Ziegler, Slava; Herrmann, Justin; Willig, Felix; Gabler, Julia; Jangid, Khushbu; Schmid, Juliane; Hans, Andreas C.; Frey, Wolfgang; Sarkar, Biprajit; Kästner, Johannes; Peters, RenéPyrazolones represent an important structural motif in active pharmaceutical ingredients. Their asymmetric synthesis is thus widely studied. Still, a generally highly enantio- and diastereoselective 1,4-addition to nitroolefins providing products with adjacent stereocenters is elusive. In this article, a new polyfunctional CuII-1,2,3-triazolium-aryloxide catalyst is presented which enables this reaction type with high stereocontrol. DFT studies revealed that the triazolium stabilizes the transition state by hydrogen bonding between C(5)-H and the nitroolefin and verify a cooperative mode of activation. Moreover, they show that the catalyst adopts a rigid chiral cage/pore structure by intramolecular hydrogen bonding, by which stereocontrol is achieved. Control catalyst systems confirm the crucial role of the triazolium, aryloxide and CuII, requiring a sophisticated structural orchestration for high efficiency. The addition products were used to form pyrazolidinones by chemoselective C=N reduction. These heterocycles are shown to be valuable precursors toward β,γ’-diaminoamides by chemoselective nitro and N-N bond reductions. Morphological profiling using the Cell painting assay identified biological activities for the pyrazolidinones and suggest modulation of DNA synthesis as a potential mode of action. One product showed biological similarity to Camptothecin, a lead structure for cancer therapy.Item Open Access A practical and robust zwitterionic cooperative Lewis acid/acetate/benzimidazolium catalyst for direct 1,4‐additions(2023) Hans, Andreas C.; Becker, Patrick M.; Haußmann, Johanna; Suhr, Simon; Wanner, Daniel M.; Lederer, Vera; Willig, Felix; Frey, Wolfgang; Sarkar, Biprajit; Kästner, Johannes; Peters, RenéA catalyst type is disclosed allowing for exceptional efficiency in direct 1,4‐additions. The catalyst is a zwitterionic entity, in which acetate binds to CuII, which is formally negatively charged and serving as counterion for benzimidazolium. All 3 functionalities are involved in the catalytic activation. For maleimides productivity was increased by a factor >300 compared to literature (TONs up to 6700). High stereoselectivity and productivity was attained for a broad range of other Michael acceptors as well. The polyfunctional catalyst is accessible in only 4 steps from N‐Ph‐benzimidazole with an overall yield of 96 % and robust during catalysis. This allowed to reuse the same catalyst multiple times with nearly constant efficiency. Mechanistic studies, in particular by DFT, give a detailed picture how the catalyst operates. The benzimidazolium unit stabilizes the coordinated enolate nucleophile and prevents that acetate/acetic acid dissociate from the catalyst.Item Open Access Neutral and cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene cyclic alkyl amino carbene (CAAC) complexes for olefin metathesis(2023) Kundu, Koushani; Musso, Janis V.; Benedikter, Mathis J.; Frey, Wolfgang; Gugeler, Katrin; Kästner, Johannes; Buchmeiser, Michael R.The first neutral and cationic Mo imido alkylidene cyclic alkyl amino carbene (CAAC) complexes of the general formulae [Mo(N-Ar)(CHCMe2Ph)(X)2(CAAC)] and [Mo(N−Ar)(CHCMe2Ph)(X)(CAAC)][B(ArF)4] (X=Br, Cl, OTf, OC6F5; CAAC=1-(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)-3,3,5,5-tetramethyltetrahydropyrrol-2-ylidene) have been synthesized from molybdenum imido bishalide alkylidene DME precursors. Different combinations of the imido and “X” ligands have been employed to understand synthetic peculiarities. Selected complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Due to the pronounced σ-donor/π-acceptor characteristics of CAACs, the corresponding neutral and cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene CAAC complexes do not require the presence of stabilizing donor ligands such as nitriles. Calculations on the PBE0-D3BJ/def2-TZVP level for PBE0-D3BJ/def2-SVP optimized geometries revealed partial charges at molybdenum similar to the corresponding molybdenum imido alkylidene N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes with a slightly higher polarization of the molybdenum alkylidene bond in the CAAC complexes. All cationic complexes have been tested in olefin metathesis reactions and showed improved activity compared to the analogous NHC complexes for hydrocarbon-based substrates, allowing for turnover numbers (TONs) up to 9500 even at room temperature. Some Mo imido alkylidene CAAC complexes are tolerant towards functional groups like thioethers and sulfonamides.
