Abstract

By kinetically stabilizing imidozirconocene complexes through the use of a sterically demanding ligand, or by generating a more thermodynamically stable resting state with addition of diphenylacetylene, we have developed transition metal-catalyzed imine metathesis reactions that are mechanistically analogous to olefin metathesis reactions catalyzed by metal carbene complexes. When 5 mol % of Cp*Cp(THF)Zr=N(t)Bu is used as the catalyst precursor in the metathesis reaction between PhCH=NPh and p-TolCH=N-p-Tol, a 1:1:1:1 equilibrium mixture with the two mixed imines p-TolCH=NPh and PhCH=N-p-Tol is generated in C(6)D(6) at 105 degrees C. The catalyst was still active after 20 days with an estimated 847 turnovers (t(1/2) 170 m; TON = 1.77 h(-1)). When the azametallacyclobutene Cp(2)Zr(N(Tol)C(Ph)=C(Ph)) is used as the catalyst precursor under similar reaction conditions, a total of 410 turnovers are obtained after 4 days (t(1/2) 170 m; TON = 4.3 h(-1)). An extensive kinetic and equilibrium analysis of the metallacyclobutene-catalyzed metathesis of PhCH=N-p-Tol and p-F-C(6)H(4)CH=N-p-F-C(6)H(4) was carried out by monitoring the concentrations of imines and observable metal-containing intermediates over time. Numerical integration met...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
