Synthesis, Characterization, and Study of Catalytic Activity of Chiral Cu(II) and Ni(II) Salen Complexes in the α-Amino Acid C-α Alkylation Reaction. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28031180. [PMID: 36770847 PMCID: PMC9919381 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28031180] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 01/18/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
A new family of Cu(II) and Ni(II) salen complexes was synthesized and fully characterized through various physicochemical methods. Their catalytic activity was evaluated in the phase transfer Cα-alkylation reaction of the Schiff bases of D,L-alanine ester and benzaldehyde derivatives. It was found that the introduction of a chlorine atom into the ortho- and para-positions of the phenyl ring of the substrate resulted in an increase in both the chemical yield and the asymmetric induction (ee 66-98%). The highest enantiomeric excess was achieved in the case of a Cu(II) salen complex based on (S,S)-cyclohexanediamine and salicylaldehyde at -20 °C. The occurrence of a bulky substituent in the ligand present in the complexes led to a drastic decrease in ee and chemical yield. For instance, the introduction of bulky substituents at positions 3 and 5 of the phenyl ring of the catalyst resulted in a complete loss of the stereoselectivity control in the alkylation reaction.

Abstract
To provide guiding information for developing efficient and stable catalysts for epoxide hydration, we investigated the mechanism of propylene oxide (PO) to 1,2-propylene glycol (PG) using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The mechanism was identified to follow the cooperative bimetallic mechanism in which a metal-salen complex activated H2O attacks the middle carbon atom of a metal-salen complex activated PO from the oxygen side of three-membered ring. Analyses reveal that the distortion energy correlates linearly with the barrier, and the hydrogen bonding between H2O and PO increases from reaction precursors to transition states. A nice linear relationship exists between the ratio of square root of ionic potential to the square of the distance from the metal ion spherical surface to the oxygen atom center of PO. It is demonstrated that the substrates with larger polarizability tend to have lower hydration barriers and the influence of ligands is less than that of metal centers and substrates. Modifying metal ions is the first choice for developing metal-salen catalysts, and metal ions with more formal charges and larger radius are expected to exhibit high activity. These findings shed lights on the mechanism and provide guiding information for developing efficient metal-salen catalysts for epoxide hydration.

Abstract
We have recently reported a series of neutral square planar tridentate Schiff base (L) complexes of the general formula [(L)M(py)], showing relatively high first-order hyperpolarizabilities and NLO redox switching behavior. In the present study, new members of this family of compounds have been prepared with the objective to investigate their potential as building blocks in the on-demand construction of D-π-A push–pull systems. Namely, ternary nickel(II) building blocks of general formula [(LA/D)Ni(4-pyX)] (4–7), where LA/D stands for an electron accepting or donating dianionic O,N,O-tridentate Schiff base ligand resulting from the monocondensation of 2-aminophenol or its 4-substituted nitro derivative and β-diketones R-C(=O)CH2C(=O)CH3 (R = methyl, anisyl, ferrocenyl), and 4-pyX is 4-iodopyridine or 4-ethynylpyridine, were synthesized and isolated in 60–78% yields. Unexpectedly, the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction between the 4-iodopyridine derivative 6 and 4-ethynylpyridine led to the formation of the bis(4-pyridyl) acetylene bridged centrosymmetric dimer [{(LD)Ni}2(µ2-py-C≡C-py)] (8). Complexes 4–8 were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction and computational methods. In each compound, the four-coordinate Ni(II) metal ion adopts a square planar geometry with two nitrogen and two oxygen atoms as donors occupying trans positions. In 8, the Ni…Ni separation is of 13.62(14) Å. Experimental results were proved and explained theoretically exploiting Density Functional Theory calculations.
