Polymerizations of various α-olefins were carried out using an α-diamine nickel catalyst with a significantly distorted chelating ring. The influences of temperature, monomer concentration, and chain length of α-olefins on polyolefin microstructure were examined in detail. The α-diamine nickel catalyst realized highly regioselective 2,1-insertion of α-olefins regardless of reaction temperature and monomer concentration. Increased chain length of α-olefins led to the formation of more linear polyolefin.Semicrystalline polyolefins with high melting temperatures(Tm) were made from α-olefins through highly regioselective 2,1-insertion and precise chain-straightening.展开更多

Controlling the regioselectivities of linear esters(L) and branched esters(B) is a challenging project for researchers working in this reaction. Although most of the attention has been paid to control the regioselectivity through ligand design in homogeneous catalytic systems, study in the area is still limited. Herein, Ru-clusters/CeO2 is employed as a heterogeneous catalyst for the hydromethoxycarbonylation of styrene without any additives. After optimization of the reaction conditions, the conversion of styrene is > 99% with 83% and 12% regioselectivity of linear and branched ester, respectively. By using different supports(CeO2(nanoparticle), CeO2-rod, and CeO2-cube), three catalysts including Ru-clusters/CeO2, Ru/CeO2-rod, and Ru/CeO2-cube are prepared and applied in the reaction. Structural characterizations demonstrate that the L/B ratio is related to the Ru size of supported Ru catalysts. Further Raman characterization and NH3-TPD demonstrate that the metal-support interaction and the concentration of oxygen vacancy of the catalyst have a great influence on the Ru size. The mechanism and kinetic analysis for this reaction are also investigated in this work.展开更多

Polymerizations of various α-olefins were carried out using an α-diamine nickel catalyst with a significantly distorted chelating ring. The influences of temperature, monomer concentration, and chain length of α-olefins on polyolefin microstructure were examined in detail. The α-diamine nickel catalyst realized highly regioselective 2,1-insertion of α-olefins regardless of reaction temperature and monomer concentration. Increased chain length of α-olefins led to the formation of more linear polyolefin.Semicrystalline polyolefins with high melting temperatures(Tm) were made from α-olefins through highly regioselective 2,1-insertion and precise chain-straightening.

文摘Permanganate has attracted much attention in wide range of chemistry and particularly in degradation of environmental pollutants.However,few studies have discussed the feature of regioselective reactivity of permanganate with specific moiety of the target compound.Herein,we studied the reaction between permanganate and tetracycline that is an emerging micropollutant with different species containing several electron-rich groups.The second-order rate constants increased from 6.0 to 9.0 and could be quantitatively modeled by considering the speciation of both reactants,yielding kTC0=11.7(mol/L)^-1 sec^-1,kTC-=35.7(mol/L)^-1 sec^-1,kTC2-=43.1(mol/L)^-1 sec^-1 for individual reaction channels.Degradation products were then identified as the hydroxylated and demethylated compounds.The result suggested a rate-limiting step of simple hydroxylation at the phenolic and/or alkene moieties,while the demethylation should be caused by the unavoidably formed manganese oxide via single electron oxidation.This is supported by the DFT calculation,indicating the primary oxidation of phenolic group of TC0 with activation barrier of 44.5 kcal/mol and of alkene group of TC-and TC2-with activation barriers of 44.0 and 43.4 kcal/mol,respectively.This is in agreement with the experimental results,implying the alternation of regioselectivity associated with the deprotonation process.The result was further supported by performing the Fukui function and electrostatic potential analysis,reflecting the more probable site and better electron donating tendency beneficial to the permanganate oxidation.
文摘An efficient route for the palladium-catalyzed reductive aminocarbonylation of olefins with nitroarenes was developed using carbon monoxide(CO)as both reductant and carbonyl source,which enables facile access to amides with excellent regioselectivity and broad substrate scope.It is found that the counter anions of the Pd catalyst precursors significantly affect the reaction chemoselectivity and amide regioselectivity.Branched amides were mainly obtained with K2PdCl4 as the metal catalyst,and phosphine ligands had no influence on the regioselectivity but affected the catalytic reactivity.However,phosphine ligands had significant effects on aminocarbonylation regioselectivity when Pd(CH3CN)4(OTf)2 was used;monodentate phosphines tended to form branched amides,and bidentate phosphines mainly formed linear amides.Trapping experiments,primary kinetic studies,and control reactions with all possible N-species reduced from nitroarene indicated that the catalytic synthesis of branched and linear amides produced nitrene(further converted to enamide)and aniline,respectively,different from the previous ligand-controlled regioselective synthesis of amides via the aminocarbonylation of olefins with amines.Furthermore,the proposed synthesis route could be applied in the synthesis of gram-scale propanil under mild conditions.
文摘Hydroalkoxycarbonylation of olefins has been considered to be one of the most attractive methods to synthesize esters. Controlling the regioselectivities of linear esters(L) and branched esters(B) is a challenging project for researchers working in this reaction. Although most of the attention has been paid to control the regioselectivity through ligand design in homogeneous catalytic systems, study in the area is still limited. Herein, Ru-clusters/CeO2 is employed as a heterogeneous catalyst for the hydromethoxycarbonylation of styrene without any additives. After optimization of the reaction conditions, the conversion of styrene is > 99% with 83% and 12% regioselectivity of linear and branched ester, respectively. By using different supports(CeO2(nanoparticle), CeO2-rod, and CeO2-cube), three catalysts including Ru-clusters/CeO2, Ru/CeO2-rod, and Ru/CeO2-cube are prepared and applied in the reaction. Structural characterizations demonstrate that the L/B ratio is related to the Ru size of supported Ru catalysts. Further Raman characterization and NH3-TPD demonstrate that the metal-support interaction and the concentration of oxygen vacancy of the catalyst have a great influence on the Ru size. The mechanism and kinetic analysis for this reaction are also investigated in this work.

文摘Cyano substitution is vital to the molecular design of polymer semiconductors toward highly efficient organic solar cells.However,how regioselectivity impacts relevant optoelectronic properties in cyano-substituted bithiophene systems remain poorly understood.Three regioisomeric cyano-functionalized dialkoxybithiophenes BT_(HH),BT_(HT),and BT_(TT) with headto-head,head-to-tail,and tail-to-tail linkage,respectively,were synthesized and characterized in this work.The resulting polymer semiconductors(PBDTBTs)based on these building blocks were prepared accordingly.The regiochemistry and property relationships of PBDTBTs were investigated in detail.The BTHH moiety has a higher torsional barrier than the analogs BT_(HT) and BT_(TT),and the regiochemistry of dialkoxybithiophenes leads to fine modulation in the optoelectronic properties of these polymers,such as optical absorption,band gap,and energy levels of frontier molecular orbitals.Organic field-effect transistors based on PBDTBT_(HH) had higher hole mobility(4.4×10^(-3) cm^(2)/(V·s))than those(ca.10^(-4) cm^(2)/(V·s))of the other two polymer analogs.Significantly different short-circuit current densities and fill factors were obtained in polymer solar cells using PBDTBTs as the electron donors.Such difference was probed in greater detail by performing space-charge-limited current mobility,thin-film morphology,and transient photocurrent/photovoltage characterizations.The findings highlight that the BTHH unit is a promising building block for the construction of polymer donors for highperformance organic photovoltaic cells.
