Abstract
The hydrovinylation of styrene and ring-substituted styrene molecules by the ionic nickel precursor trans-[Ni(2,4,6-Me3C6H2) (CH3CN) (P(CH2Ph)3)2]BF4 in THF solution has been investigated. The chemoselectivity towards hydrovinylation products is about 99%. For styrene the conversion is nearly complete and the regioselectivity towards the vinylation in the α-position in the conjugated aryl olefin derivatives is 100%. The yield of 3-phenyl-1-butene reaches 97% with minor amounts of the isomerization products cis- and trans-2-phenyl-2-butene. The turnover rate of the reaction at 25°C, 15 bar (initial pressure) of ethylene with a styrene/[Ni] ratio 1000/1 is 1915 h−1. With styrene derivatives substituted in the vinyl fragment, the hydrovinylation reaction was very limited; however those substituted in the phenyl fragment (ArCH=CH2; Ar:p- and m-Me(C6H4), p- and m-Et(C6H4), p-and m-vinyl(C6H4), p- and m-Cl(C6H4), p-MeO(C6H4) and m-NO2(C6H4)) showed similar selectivity to styrene but different turnover rates. Activity decreases with the substituent in the sequence Cl∼OMe∼CH=CH2∼H∼CH2CH3&>;Me&>;NO2 related with the coordination ability of the olefin. Activity of the para derivatives is slightly higher than that of the meta analogues. The ionic compound [Ni(2,4,6-Me3C6H2) (CH3CN) ((PhCH2)2PCH2CH2P(CH2Ph)2)]BF4 and the neutral trans-[NiBr(2,4,6-Me3C6H2) (P(CH2Ph)3)2] do not show any activity in the codimerization reaction of styrene and ethylene in the same conditions.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Molecular Catalysis (China) is a bimonthly journal, founded in 1987. It is a bimonthly journal, founded in 1987, sponsored by Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, under the supervision of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and published by Science Publishing House, which is a scholarly journal openly circulated both at home and abroad. The journal mainly reports the latest progress and research results on molecular catalysis. It contains academic papers, research briefs, research reports and progress reviews. The content focuses on coordination catalysis, enzyme catalysis, light-ribbed catalysis, stereochemistry in catalysis, catalytic reaction mechanism and kinetics, the study of catalyst surface states and the application of quantum chemistry in catalysis. We also provide contributions on the activation, deactivation and regeneration of homogeneous catalysts, solidified homogeneous catalysts and solidified enzyme catalysts in industrial catalytic processes, as well as on the optimisation and characterisation of catalysts for new catalytic processes.
The main target readers are scientists and postgraduates working in catalysis in research institutes, industrial and mining enterprises, as well as teachers and students of chemistry and chemical engineering departments in colleges and universities. Contributions from related professionals are welcome.
