  • sharpless Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of olefins in watersurfactant media with recycling of the catalytic system by membrane nanofiltration
    Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis, 2008
    Co-Authors: Luis C Branco, Frederico Castelo Ferreira, J L C Santos, Joao G Crespo, Carlos A M Afonso
    Abstract:

    This paper presents a new and more sustainable alternative approach for the Sharpless catalytic Asymmetric Dihydroxylation (AD) of olefins using a water/surfactant system as reaction media. The AD reaction was performed using several cationic and anionic surfactants allowing yields and enantiomeric excesses higher or comparable with the conventional systems (using organic mixtures). The use of this water/surfactant medium offers the additional advantage of performing the reactions without the need of a slow addition of olefins. Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of 1-hexene in a 1.5 mM sodium cholate aqueous solution, using N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) as co-oxidant was selected as model system to evaluate the feasibility of recycling the Sharpless catalytic system by nanofiltration. The reaction media was processed by nanofiltration, the product was isolated in the permeate, whereas the catalytic system and surfactant were retained by the membrane and recycled through six successive reactions, improving the catalyst turn-over number. The experimental results were compared with the ones calculated on the basis of mass balances, membrane rejections to product and reaction yields.

  • application of nanofiltration to re use the sharpless Asymmetric Dihydroxylation catalytic system
    Tetrahedron-asymmetry, 2007
    Co-Authors: Luis C Branco, Frederico Castelo Ferreira, Joao G Crespo, Kaushal Kishor Verma, Carlos A M Afonso
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this paper, successive batch steps of an osmium-catalyzed Asymmetric Dihydroxylation reaction using Sharpless conditions and nanofiltration of post-reaction mixture were coupled, allowing us to enhance the cumulative catalyst turn over number to about 3.7 times over six cycles. The nanofiltration step provides for isolation of the chiral product, whereas the catalytic system (osmium and chiral ligand) is re-used in the following batch cycle. In this work the osmium average rejection through the selected nanofiltration membrane, Starmem™120, was 83%; this result may indicate the existence of free osmium in solution and implies residual product osmium contamination at an average value of 1.5 mg Os/g-product. Effective application of this methodology to the model reaction requires improvement of catalyst rejection, which calls for an effective complexation of osmium by the ligand. Nevertheless, the enantioselectivity of the reaction was maintained constant over the six cycles at a value of 69%.

  • osmium catalyzed Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of methyl trans cinnamate in ionic liquids followed by supercritical co2 product recovery
    Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, 2005
    Co-Authors: Ana Serbanovic, Luis C Branco, Manuel Nunes Da Ponte, Carlos A M Afonso
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this work, osmium-catalyzed Asymmetric Dihydroxylation (AD) of methyl trans -cinnamate was studied. Osmium and chiral ligand catalysts were immobilized in ionic liquid only, without any other reaction solvents, while the recovery of the product was performed by extraction with supercritical CO 2 , and compared with results obtained by extractions with organic solvents such as hexane and diethyl ether. In supercritical CO 2 extraction experiments, optimal extraction pressure was found and ionic liquid chosen, so that the highest reaction yields coupled with lowest osmium content in the crude product can be achieved. Finally, recycle experiments of the same (ionic liquid + catalytic system) mixture were successfully conducted. Application of ionic liquids and supercritical CO 2 in osmium catalyzed AD allows for the isolation of the diol basically without contamination with osmium, in high yield and enantiomeric excess, and it makes possible the efficient reuse of ionic liquid solvent and the catalytic system.

  • ionic liquids as a convenient new medium for the catalytic Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of olefins using a recoverable and reusable osmium ligand
    Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2004
    Co-Authors: Luis C Branco, Carlos A M Afonso
    Abstract:

    The use of room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) in the Sharpless catalytic Asymmetric Dihydroxylation (AD) as a cosolvent or replacement of the tert-butanol was studied in detail by screening 11 different RTILs. The AD reaction is faster in 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [C4mim][PF6] as a cosolvent than in the conventional system of tert-butanol/H2O. For the range of six substrates tested, comparable or even higher yields and enantiomeric excess (ee) were found using [C4mim][PF6] or 1-n-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [C8mim][PF6] compared to the conventional solvent system. Due to high affinity of the catalytic osmium/quiral ligand system to the ionic liquid, the use of ionic liquid/water (biphasic) or ionic liquid/water/tert-butanol (monophasic) solvent systems provides a recoverable, reusable, robust, efficient, and simple system for the AD reaction. Using 1-hexene and [C4mim][PF6] as RTIL it was possible to reuse the catalytic system for 9 cycles with only a 5% of yi...
