Item Open Access Macrocyclization of dienes under confinement with cationic tungsten imido/oxo alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes(2023) Ziegler, Felix; Bruckner, Johanna R.; Nowakowski, Michal; Bauer, Matthias; Probst, Patrick; Atwi, Boshra; Buchmeiser, Michael R.Macrocyclization reactions are still challenging due to competing oligomerization, which requires the use of small substrate concentrations. Here, the cationic tungsten imido and tungsten oxo alkylidene N-heterocyclic carbene complexes [[W(N-2,6-Cl2-C6H3)(CHCMe2Ph(OC6F5)(pivalonitrile)(IMes)+ B(ArF)4-] (W1) and [W(O (CHCMe2Ph(OCMe(CF3)2)(IMes)(CH3CN)+ B(ArF)4-] (W2) (IMes=1,3-dimesitylimidazol-2-ylidene; B(ArF)4-=tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl borate) have been immobilized inside the pores of ordered mesoporous silica (OMS) with pore diameters of 3.3 and 6.8 nm, respectively, using a pore-selective immobilization protocol. X-ray absorption spectroscopy of W1@OMS showed that even though the catalyst structure is contracted due to confinement by the mesopores, both the oxidation state and structure of the catalyst stayed intact upon immobilization. Catalytic testing with four differently sized α,ω-dienes revealed a dramatically increased macrocyclization (MC) and Z-selectivity of the supported catalysts compared to the homogenous progenitors, allowing high substrate concentrations of 25 mM. With the supported complexes, a maximum increase in MC-selectivity from 27 to 81 % and in Z-selectivity from 17 to 34 % was achieved. In general, smaller mesopores exhibited a stronger confinement effect. A comparison of the two supported tungsten-based catalysts showed that W1@OMS possesses a higher MC-selectivity, while W2@OMS exhibits a higher Z-selectivity which can be rationalized by the structures of the catalysts.Item Open Access High‐performance magnesium‐sulfur batteries based on a sulfurated poly(acrylonitrile) cathode, a borohydride electrolyte, and a high‐surface area magnesium anode(2020) Wang, Peiwen; Trück, Janina; Niesen, Stefan; Kappler, Julian; Küster, Kathrin; Starke, Ulrich; Ziegler, Felix; Hintennach, Andreas; Buchmeiser, Michael R.Post‐lithium‐ion battery technology is considered a key element of future energy storage and management. Apart from high gravimetric and volumetric energy densities, economic, ecologic and safety issues become increasingly important. In that regards, both the anode and cathode materials must be easily available, recyclable, non‐toxic and safe, which renders magnesium‐sulfur (Mg-S) batteries a promising choice. Herein, we present Mg-S cells based on a sulfurated poly(acrylonitrile) composite cathode (SPAN), together with a halogen‐free electrolyte containing both Mg[BH4]2 and Li[BH4] in diglyme and a high‐specific surface area magnesium anode based on Rieke magnesium powder. These cells deliver discharge capacities of 1400 and 800 mAh/gsulfur with >99 % Coulombic efficiency at 0.1 C and 0.5 C, respectively, and are stable over at least 300 cycles. Energy densities are 470 and 400 Wh/kgsulfur at 0.1 C and 0.5 C, respectively. Rate tests carried out between 0.1 C and 2 C demonstrate good rate capability of the cells. Detailed mechanistic studies based on X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electric impedance spectroscopy are presented.Item Open Access Asymmetric Rh diene catalysis under confinement : isoxazole ring‐contraction in mesoporous solids(2024) Marshall, Max; Dilruba, Zarfishan; Beurer, Ann‐Katrin; Bieck, Kira; Emmerling, Sebastian; Markus, Felix; Vogler, Charlotte; Ziegler, Felix; Fuhrer, Marina; Liu, Sherri S. Y.; Kousik, Shravan R.; Frey, Wolfgang; Traa, Yvonne; Bruckner, Johanna R.; Plietker, Bernd; Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Ludwigs, Sabine; Naumann, Stefan; Atanasova, Petia; Lotsch, Bettina V.; Zens, Anna; Laschat, SabineCovalent immobilization of chiral dienes in mesoporous solids for asymmetric heterogeneous catalysis is highly attractive. In order to study confinement effects in bimolecular vs monomolecular reactions, a series of pseudo‐C2‐symmetrical tetrahydropentalenes was synthesized and immobilized via click reaction on different mesoporous solids (silica, carbon, covalent organic frameworks) and compared with homogeneous conditions. Two types of Rh‐catalyzed reactions were studied: (a) bimolecular nucleophilic 1,2‐additions of phenylboroxine to N‐tosylimine and (b) monomolecular isomerization of isoxazole to 2H‐azirne. Polar support materials performed better than non‐polar ones. Under confinement, bimolecular reactions showed decreased yields, whereas yields in monomolecular reactions were only little affected. Regarding enantioselectivity the opposite trend was observed, i. e. effective enantiocontrol for bimolecular reactions but only little control for monomolecular reactions was found.Item Open Access Makrozyklisierung in definierten Geometrien : Olefinmetathese-Katalysatoren immobilisiert in maßgeschneiderten mesoporösen Materialien(2022) Ziegler, Felix; Buchmeiser, Michael R. (Prof. Dr.)Item Open Access Olefin metathesis under spatial confinement and continuous flow : investigation of isomeric side reactions with a Grubbs-Hoveyda type catalyst(2023) Böth, André; Roider, Thomas; Ziegler, Felix; Xie, Xiulan; Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Tallarek, UlrichA 2nd‐generation Grubbs-Hoveyda type catalyst was immobilized inside mesoporous silica and used in the ring‐closing metathesis (RCM) of an α,ω‐diene to a large macro(mono)cycle. The goal was to investigate the relationship between substrate concentration, reaction time, and overall experiment time on the rate of isomerization under spatial (mesopore space) confinement with continuous‐flow microreactors. RCM reactions are commonly monitored by 1H NMR analysis, however, elucidation of reaction mixtures yielding large rings with a difference of only a single carbon atom remains difficult, because NMR signals are sometimes indistinguishable. In this work, an analytical platform with on‐line separation and detection of UV‐active substrate as well as (side) products by high‐performance liquid chromatography and a UV/Vis‐diode array detector (DAD) plus mass spectrometry served as enabling technology to quantify yield and selectivity under the respective reaction conditions. Using this setup, competitive reaction equilibria and isomerization reactions, in particular, could be resolved. Identification and quantification of relevant compounds of the reaction scheme under spatial confinement became possible despite chemical similarity. Kinetic data revealed that isomerization increases with higher substrate concentrations (up to 250 mM) and longer reaction times (from 1.2 to 18.6 min), but shows a distinct decline for prolonged overall experiment times (up to ∼250 min).Item Open Access Olefin ring‐closing metathesis under spatial confinement and continuous flow(2021) Ziegler, Felix; Roider, Thomas; Pyschik, Markus; Haas, Christian P.; Wang, Dongren; Tallarek, Ulrich; Buchmeiser, Michael R.We report on the use of a 2nd‐generation Hoveyda-Grubbs‐type catalyst immobilized inside mesoporous silica for the application in selective macro(mono)cyclization (MMC) of an α,ω‐diene under spatially confined and continuous‐flow conditions. Reactions carried out with different flow rates allow for variations in residence time; conversion and MMC selectivity can be determined for well‐defined reaction times. Analysis of the reaction mixtures obtained for different reaction times and temperatures in a single flow experiment by NMR and MALDI‐TOF‐MS allows to address confinement effects and to determine olefin metathesis pathways. These investigations revealed that ring‐chain equilibria are quickly established but substantially affected by residence time and flow, allowing for the determination of conditions under which MMC selectivity reaches a maximum. In contrast to reactions carried out in solution, in which oligomers up to the hexamer were observed, MMC under confinement predominantly proceeds via ring‐closing metathesis of the monomer and backbiting from the dimer and trimer, but not from higher oligomers as their formation is suppressed. This leads to the observed high MMC selectivity, reaching 60 % at a 25 mM substrate concentration.Item Open Access Olefin ring‐closing metathesis under spatial confinement : morphology-transport relationships(2020) Tallarek, Ulrich; Hochstrasser, Janika; Ziegler, Felix; Huang, Xiaohui; Kübel, Christian; Buchmeiser, Michael R.Spatial confinement effects on hindered transport in mesoporous silica particles are quantified using reconstructions of their morphology obtained by electron tomography as geometrical models in direct diffusion simulations for passive, finite‐size tracers. We monitor accessible porosity and effective diffusion coefficients resulting from steric and hydrodynamic interactions between tracers and pore space confinement as a function of λ=dtracer/dmeso, the ratio of tracer to mean mesopore size. For λ=0, pointlike tracers reproduce the true diffusive tortuosities. For λ>0, derived hindrance factors quantify the extent to which diffusion through the materials is hindered compared with free diffusion in the bulk liquid. Morphology‐transport relationships are then discussed with respect to the immobilization, formation, and transport of key molecular species in the ring‐closing metathesis of an α,ω‐diene to macro(mono)cyclization product and oligomer, with a 2nd‐generation Hoveyda‐Grubbs type catalyst immobilized inside the mesopores of the particles.Item Open Access Synthetic and structural peculiarities of neutral and cationic molybdenum imido and tungsten oxo alkylidene complexes bearing weakly coordinating N‐heterocyclic carbenes(2024) Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Wang, Dongren; Schowner, Roman; Stöhr, Laura; Ziegler, Felix; Sen, Suman; Frey, WolfgangThe syntheses of the neutral molybdenum imido alkylidene N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of the general formula [Mo(NAr)(CHCMe2Ph)(NHC)XY] (Ar=2-tBu-C6H4, 2-CF3-C6H4, 2,6-Me2-C6H3, 2,6-Cl2-C6H3, adamantyl; X, Y=OTf, OC(CF3)3, OCH(CF3)2, OC6F5, SC6F5, 2,5-bis(pentafluorophenyl)phen-1-yl) bearing electron-withdrawing NHCs (1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dichloroimidazol-2-ylidene (IMeCl2), 1,3,4-triphenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene (TPT)) are reported. Complementary, the corresponding cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene NHC complexes of the general formula [Mo(NAr)(CHCMe2R)(NHC)X+][B(ArF)4−/Al(OC(CF3)3)4−] (R=Me, Ph; B(ArF)4-=tetrakis (3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate) have been prepared. Aiming at tungsten oxo complexes, reaction of [W(O)Cl2(CHCMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)2] with [1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dichloroimidazol-2-ylidene⋅AgI] (IMeCl2⋅AgI) followed by the addition of lithium terphenoxide yields [W(O)(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)(DPPO)2]. For comparison, [W(O)Cl(CHCMe2Ph)(IMes)(OSi(OtBu)3)] was prepared via reaction of [W(O)Cl2(CHCMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)(IMes)] with KOSi(OtBu)3. [W(O)(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)(DPPO)(Et2O)+][B(ArF)4−] (DPPO=2,6-diphenylphenoxide) became accessible via reaction of [W(O)(DPPO)2(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)] with anilinium B(ArF)4-. The structural peculiarities of selected complexes are reported. Benchmark ring-closing metathesis and homometathesis reactions revealed that the neutral complexes bearing weakly coordinating NHCs such as IMeCl2 and TPT possessed only moderate activity, which could, however, be improved by preparing the corresponding cationic metal alkylidene complexes.Item Open Access Cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes confined in mesoporous silica : tuning transition states towards Z‐selective ring‐opening cross‐metathesis(2022) Goldstein, Elizabeth L.; Ziegler, Felix; Beurer, Ann‐Katrin; Traa, Yvonne; Bruckner, Johanna R.; Buchmeiser, Michael R.We recently reported a method for selective macro(mono)cyclization of dienes utilizing catalysts confined inside the pores of mesoporous silica, which we believe occurs due to suppression of oligomerization due to pore size. We hypothesized, however, that the system of cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysts immobilized selectively inside the mesopores of silica materials could address much more subtle selectivity differences, such as E/Z selectivity in ring‐opening/cross‐metathesis (ROCM). Upon investigation, we observed that surface‐bound cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene NHC catalysts indeed display an increased Z‐selectivity, especially during the early stages of the reaction. This effect was present when the catalyst was confined inside a pore, as well as when the catalyst was bound to non‐porous silica, which led us to conclude it is an effect caused by the catalyst being bound directly to the surface of a silica material where the proximity of the catalyst to the surface governs the transition state. Kinetic investigations revealed that significant post‐metathesis olefin isomerization occurs, the amount of which seems to be governed by the rate of diffusion of the product away from the active catalyst, with smaller pore sizes resulting in higher Z‐selectivity at higher conversion, attributable to faster diffusion of the product out of the pore than diffusion back into the pore.
