Paragraph 0067-0071, (2020/12/09)
The invention relates to a half-sandwiched ruthenium complex containing a carborane schiff base ligand and a preparation and an application thereof. The preparation method specifically comprises the following steps; i) dissolving o-carborane formaldehyde and aromatic amine in an organic solvent, carrying out reaction at 60-100 DEG C for 8-12h, cooling to room temperature after the reaction; ii) adding n-butyllithium, carrying out reaction at room temperature for 1.5-2.5h; ii) adding phellandrene ruthenium chloride dimer, carrying out reaction at room temperature for 3-6h, and obtaining the half-sandwiched ruthenium complex through separation. The half-sandwiched ruthenium complex is applied to catalyze transfer hydrogenation reaction of nitrile compounds. Compared with the prior art, the complex of the present invention is not sensitive to air and water, has stable properties, and shows high-efficiency catalytic activity in catalyzing the transfer hydrogenation reaction of nitrile compounds. The preparation method of the complex is simple and green, high in yield, mild in reaction conditions and good in universality.

The transformation of alkyl nitriles to symmetrical and asymmetrical secondary aliphatic amines promoted by the hexahydride complex OsH6(PiPr3)2 (1) is described, and the mechanisms of the reactions involved are established. Complex 1 catalyzes the aforementioned transformations of aryl-, pyridyl-, and alkoxy-functionalized alkyl nitriles with linear or branched chains. The formation of the secondary amines involves primary imines, primary amines, and secondary imines as organic intermediates. The reactions take place under mild conditions (toluene, 100 °C, and 4 bar of H2). Stoichiometric reactions of 1 with pivalonitrile and 2-methoxyacetonitrile have allowed us to isolate the trihydride azavinylidene derivatives OsH3{═N═CHR}(PiPr3)2 (R = tBu (3), CH2OMe (4)). Their formation involves the insertion of the N-C triple bond of the substrates into an Os-H bond of the unsaturated tetrahydride OsH4(PiPr3)2 (A), which is generated by reductive elimination of H2 from the hexahydride precursor. The reaction of these trihydride azavinylidene species with H2 is the key step for the reduction of the N-C triple bond of the nitriles. In the absence of H2, the attack of A to the azavinylidene ligand produces the rupture of its C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond. As a consequence of this attack and the presence of primary imines and amines in the reaction media, the binuclear complexes (PiPr3)2H4Os(μ-CN)OsH3{κ1-N-(NH═CHCH2OMe)}(PiPr3)2 (5) and (PiPr3)2H4Os(μ-CN)OsH3{κ1-N-(NH2CH2CH2OMe)}(PiPr3)2 (6) have been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, for 2-methoxyacetonitrile. DFT calculations reveal noticeable similarities between the hydrogenations of nitriles to primary imines and those of primary imines to primary amines.

A β-mesylation of primary sp3 C-H bonds from simple amides with methanesulfonic anhydride (Ms2O) has been established successfully at 80 °C in a Pd(OAc)2 (catalyst)/K2S2O8 (oxidant)/CF3CH2OH (solvent) system. These amide substrates involve N-monosubstituted linear, branch, or cyclic alkanes, and electron-deficient benzyl compounds. The β-mesylated amide products can be converted easily to β-fluoroamides or β-lactams through inter- or intramolecular SN2 processes.
