Abstract
The development of homogeneous metal catalysts for the efficient hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2) into methanol (CH3OH) remains a significant challenge. In this study, a new cyclopentadienone diphosphine ligand (CPDDP ligand) was designed, which could coordinate with ruthenium to form a Ru-CPDDP complex to efficiently catalyze the CO2-to-methanol process using dihydrogen (H2) as the hydrogen resource based on density functional theory (DFT) mechanistic investigation. This process consists of three catalytic cycles, stage I (the hydrogenation of CO2 to HCOOH), stage II (the hydrogenation of HCOOH to HCHO), and stage III (the hydrogenation of HCHO to CH3OH). The calculated free energy barriers for the hydrogen transfer (HT) steps of stage I, stage II, and stage III are 7.5, 14.5, and 3.5 kcal/mol, respectively. The most favorable pathway of the dihydrogen activation (DA) steps of three stages to regenerate catalytic species is proposed to be the formate-assisted DA step with a free energy barrier of 10.4 kcal/mol. The calculated results indicate that the designed Ru-CPDDP and Ru-CPDDPEt complexes could catalyze hydrogenation of CO2 to CH3OH (HCM) under mild conditions and that the transition-metal owning designed CPDDP ligand framework be one kind of promising potential efficient catalysts for HCM.

Abstract
Herein, a new series of bowl-shaped quadridentate ligands with a Si-N-Si-C-Si-C six-membered ring core and their manganese catalysts were designed using the density functional theory (DFT) method for the hydrogenation of unsaturated CX (XN, O) bonds. The frameworks of these ligands named by LYG (LYG = P(R1)2CH2Si(CH2)(CH3)NSi(CH3)(CH2Si(CH3)CH2P(R3)2)CH2P(R2)2) have a Si-N-Si-C-Si-C six-membered ring core at the bottom of the bowl structure and each Si atom links with one phosphorus arm (-CH2PR2). The Mn catalyst Mn(CO)-LYG was constructed to catalyze the hydrogenation of CO/CN bonds. The calculated results indicate that due to the bowl-shaped structure of LYG quadridentate ligands, these Mn catalysts could be advantageous not only in the tuneup of catalytic activity and stereoselectivity by modifying three phosphorus arms but also in the homogeneous catalyst immobilization by linking with the Si-N-Si-C-Si-C six-membered ring core using different supports. This work might provide theoretical insights to design new framework transition-metal catalysts for the hydrogenation of CX bonds.

The Origin of Stereoselectivity in the Hydrogenation of Oximes Catalyzed by Iridium Complexes: A DFT Mechanistic Study. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27238349.

Abstract
Herein the reaction mechanism and the origin of stereoselectivity of asymmetric hydrogenation of oximes to hydroxylamines catalyzed by the cyclometalated iridium (III) complexes with chiral substituted single cyclopentadienyl ligands (Ir catalysts A1 and B1) under acidic condition were unveiled using DFT calculations. The catalytic cycle for this reaction consists of the dihydrogen activation step and the hydride transfer step. The calculated results indicate that the hydride transfer step is the chirality-determining step and the involvement of methanesulfonate anion (MsO-) in this reaction is of importance in the asymmetric hydrogenation of oximes catalyzed by A1 and B1. The calculated energy barriers for the hydride transfer steps without an MsO- anion are higher than those with an MsO- anion. The differences in Gibbs free energies between TSA5-1fR/TSA5-1fS and TSB5-1fR/TSB5-1fS are 13.8/13.2 (ΔΔG‡ = 0.6 kcal/mol) and 7.5/5.6 (ΔΔG‡ = 1.9 kcal/mol) kcal/mol for the hydride transfer step of substrate protonated oximes with E configuration (E-2a-H+) with MsO- anion to chiral hydroxylamines product R-3a/S-3a catalyzed by A1 and B1, respectively. According to the Curtin-Hammet principle, the major products are hydroxylamines S-3a for the reaction catalyzed by A1 and B1, which agrees well with the experimental results. This is due to the non-covalent interactions among the protonated substrate, MsO- anion and catalytic species. The hydrogen bond could not only stabilize the catalytic species, but also change the preference of stereoselectivity of this reaction.

Abstract
Herein, a density functional theory (DFT) study was performed to investigate asymmetric ketone hydrogenation (AKH) catalyzed by Mn complexes, from the catalytic mechanism to the catalyst design. The calculated results indicated that the Mn(CO)2-PSiNSiP (A1, PSiNSiP = P(Ph)2Si(CH3)2NSi(CH3)2P(Ph)2) pincer complex has potential high catalytic activity for ketone hydrogenation. The Mn(CO)-LYB (B, LYB = P(Ph)2Si(CH3)2NSi(CH3)2P(Me)2) pincer complex was then designed to catalyze AKH with good stereoselectivity. The hydrogen transfer (HT) step is the chirality-determining step. To avoid the enantiomer of Mn(CO)2-LYB, which could eliminate the high stereoselectivity during AKH, novel Mn complexes with quadridentate ligands, such as Mn(CO)-LYC (C, LYC = P(CH3)2CH2Si(CH3)NSi(CH3)(Si(CH3)CH2P(CH3)2)CH2P(Ph)2) and Mn(CO)-LYD (D, LYD = P(CH3)2CH2Si(CH3)NSi(CH3)(Si(CH3)CH2P(CH3)2)CH2P(Cy)2), were designed to drive AKH with medium stereoselectivity. In order to increase the stereoselectivity of AKH, Mn(CO)-LYE (E, LYE = PH2CH2Si(CH3)NSi(CH3)(Si(CH3)CH2P(CH3)2)CH2P(Ph)2) and Mn(CO)-LYF (F, LYF = PH2CH2Si(CH3)NSi(CH3)(Si(CH3)CH2P(CH3)2)CH2P(Cy)2) were further designed and showed very good stereoselectivity, which is due to the lower deformation energy and stronger interactions between the ketone substrates and catalysts. This work may shed light on the design of cheap metal catalysts with a new ligand framework for the asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of CX bonds (X = O, N).

Abstract
Herein, we report a comprehensive study of CO2 hydroboration catalyzed by Mn pincer complexes. The traditional metal-ligand cooperation (MLC) mechanism based on the H-Mn-N-Bpin pincer complex is not viable due to the competing abstraction of the Bpin group from the H-Mn-N-Bpin complex by NaOtBu. Instead, we propose an ionic mechanism based on the H-Mn-N-Na species with a low energy span (22.5 kcal/mol) and unveil the acceleration effect of bases. The X groups in the H-Mn-N-X catalyst models are further modulated, and the steric hindrance and H→B donor-acceptor interactions of the X group increase the energy barrier of the hydride transfer. The hydrogen bond and electrostatic interactions of the X group can accelerate the hydride transfer to HCOOBpin and HCHO molecules except for the nonpolar CO2 molecule. Based on these discoveries, we designed a pyridine-based Mn pincer catalyst system, which could achieve CO2 hydroboration in low-temperature and base-free conditions through a metal-ligand cooperation mechanism.

Abstract
The density functional theory (DFT) method was employed to investigate the reaction mechanism of the hydrogen activation and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of acetophenone catalyzed by a well-defined phosphine-free Mn(I)-NNS complex. The calculation results indicate that the Mn-NNS complex has potential high catalytic hydrogenation activity. Meanwhile, the hydrogen transfer step of this reaction is proposed to be a concerted but asynchronous process, and the hydride transfer precedes proton transfer. This work also pointed out that the stereoselectivity of ATH catalyzed by the Mn(I)-NNS complex mainly originates from the noncovalent interaction between the substrate and the catalyst. Additionally, the catalytic activities of Mn-NNS complexes with different X ligands (X = CO, Cl, H, OMe, NCMe, CCMe, and CHCHMe) were compared, and the calculated total reaction energy barriers were all viable, which indicates that these Mn-NNS complexes show higher CO bond hydrogenation activity under mild conditions. This theoretical study predicts that the reactions catalyzed by complexes with H and NCMe ligands exhibit high stereoselectivity with enantiomeric excess (ee) values of 97% and 93%, respectively.

Abstract
This study focuses on uncovering the regioselectivity, directing group, ligand, and solvation effect in B-H activation, which was investigated by DFT calculations. The reaction mechanism was investigated in vacuum, and the advantageous reaction pathway and rate-determining step were determined. Furthermore, the solvation effects and the ligand that coordinated with Pd were studied. The results showed that in neutral and cationic pathways, the anion (OTf)/ligand (1,10-phenanthroline) exerted significant influence on the transition metal catalytic center Pd, thus affecting B-H activation at different sites. The solvation effects also exerted significant influence on the reaction. The greater the polarity of the solvent, the greater the influence on the energies of all stationary points.

Abstract
The dawn of the 21st century has brought with it a surge of research related to computer-guided approaches to catalyst design. In the past two decades, chemoinformatics, the application of informatics to solve problems in chemistry, has increasingly influenced prediction of activity and mechanistic investigations of organic reactions. The advent of advanced statistical and machine learning methods, as well as dramatic increases in computational speed and memory, has contributed to this emerging field of study. This review summarizes strategies to employ quantitative structure-selectivity relationships (QSSR) in asymmetric catalytic reactions. The coverage is structured by initially introducing the basic features of these methods. Subsequent topics are discussed according to increasing complexity of molecular representations. As the most applied subfield of QSSR in enantioselective catalysis, the application of local parametrization approaches and linear free energy relationships (LFERs) along with multivariate modeling techniques is described first. This section is followed by a description of global parametrization methods, the first of which is continuous chirality measures (CCM) because it is a single parameter derived from the global structure of a molecule. Chirality codes, global, multivariate descriptors, are then introduced followed by molecular interaction fields (MIFs), a global descriptor class that typically has the highest dimensionality. To highlight the current reach of QSSR in enantioselective transformations, a comprehensive collection of examples is presented. When combined with traditional experimental approaches, chemoinformatics holds great promise to predict new catalyst structures, rationalize mechanistic behavior, and profoundly change the way chemists discover and optimize reactions.

Abstract
Continuous Chirality Measure (CCM) is a computational metric by which to quantify the chirality of a compound. In enantioselective catalysis, prior work has postulated that CCM is correlated to selectivity and can be used to understand which structural features dictate catalyst efficacy. Herein, the investigation of CCM as a metric capable of guiding catalyst optimization is explored. Conformer-dependent CCM is also explored. Finally, CCM is used with Sterimol parameters to significantly improve the performance of Random Forest models.

Abstract
The mechanism of directed hydrogenation of hydroxylated alkene catalyzed by bis(phosphine)cobalt dialkyl complexes has been studied by DFT calculations. The possible reaction channels of alkene hydrogenation catalyzed by catalytic species (0T, 0P, and 0) were investigated. The calculated results indicate that the preferred catalytic activation processes undergo a 1,2 alkene insertion. 0P and 0 prefer the β hydrogen elimination mechanism with an energy barrier of 9.5 kcal/mol, and 0T prefers the reductive elimination mechanism with an energy barrier of 11.0 kcal/mol. The second H2 coordination in the σ bond metathesis mechanism needs to break the agostic H2-βC bond of metal-alkyl intermediates (21P and 21T), which owns the larger energetic span compared to the reductive elimination. This theoretical study shows that the most favorable reaction pathway of alkene hydrogenation is the β hydrogen elimination pathway catalyzed by the planar (dppe)CoH2. The hydrogenation activity of Co(II) compounds with redox-innocent phosphine donors involves the Co(0)-Co(II) catalytic mechanism.
