  • highly β selective cyclopolymerization of 1 6 heptadiynes and ring closing enyne metathesis reaction using grubbs z selective catalyst unprecedented regioselectivity for ru based catalysts
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2016
    Co-Authors: Kijung Jung, Eunhye Kang, Jeonghun Sohn, Taelim Choi
    Abstract:

    It is well-known that Ru-based Grubbs catalysts undergo a highly selective α-addition to alkynes to promote Exo-Cyclization during ring-closing enyne metathesis (RCEYM) or to produce conjugated polyenes containing five-membered rings during the cyclopolymerization (CP) of 1,6-heptadiynes. There are a few reports of β-selective addition to alkynes using Schrock catalysts based on Mo but none for readily accessible and easy-to-use Ru-based catalysts. We report the first example of β-selective addition to alkynes using Grubbs Z-selective catalyst, which produces only endo products during the RCEYM reaction of terminal enynes and promotes the CP of 1,6-heptadiyne derivatives to give conjugated polyenes containing a six-membered ring as a major repeat unit. This unique preference for β-selectivity originated from the side-bound approach of alkynes to the catalyst, where the steric hindrance between the chelating N-heterocyclic carbene ligand of the catalyst and the alkynes disfavored α-addition. To enhance the...

  • Highly β‑Selective Cyclopolymerization of 1,6-Heptadiynes and Ring-Closing Enyne Metathesis Reaction Using Grubbs Z‑Selective Catalyst: Unprecedented Regioselectivity for Ru-Based Catalysts

To enhance the β-selectivity for CP further, one could increase the size of the substrates on the monomers and lower the reaction temperature to obtain conjugated polyenes containing up to 95% six-membered rings. Moreover, the physical properties of the resulting polymer were analyzed in detail and compared with those of the conjugated polyenes containing only five-membered rings prepared from the same monomer but with a conventional Grubbs catalyst
