We herein report the catalytic hydrogenation of carbonates and polycarbonates into their corresponding diols/alcohols using well-defined, air-stable, high-valent cobalt complexes. Several novel Cp*Co(III) complexes bearing N,O-chelation were isolated for the first time and structurally characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including single crystal X-ray crystallography. These novel Co(III) complexes have shown excellent catalytic activity to produce value added diols/alcohols from carbonate and polycarbonates through hydrogenation using molecular hydrogen as sole reductant or iPrOH as transfer hydrogenation source. To demonstrate the developed methodology's practical applicability, we have recycled the bisphenol A monomer from compact disc (CD) through hydrogenation under the established reaction conditions using phosphine-free, earth-abundant, air- and moisture-stable high-valent cobalt catalysts.

Two classes of heterogenized biomimetic catalysts were prepared and characterized for hydrocarbon oxidations: (1) by covalent anchorage of the three Mn(iii) meso-tetrakis(2-, 3-, or 4-pyridyl)porphyrin isomers by in situ alkylation with chloropropyl-functionalized silica gel (Sil-Cl) to yield Sil-Cl/MnPY (Y = 1, 2, 3) materials, and (2) by electrostatic immobilization of the three Mn(iii) meso-tetrakis(N-methylpyridinium-2, 3, or 4-yl)porphyrin isomers (MnPY, Y = 4, 5, 6) on non-modified silica gel (SiO2) to yield SiO2/MnPY (Y = 4, 5, 6) materials. Silica gel used was of column chromatography grade and Mn porphyrin loadings were deliberately kept at a low level (0.3% w/w). These resulting materials were explored as catalysts for iodosylbenzene (PhIO) oxidation of cyclohexane, n-heptane, and adamantane to yield the corresponding alcohols and ketones; the oxidation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone was also investigated. The heterogenized catalysts exhibited higher efficiency and selectivity than the corresponding Mn porphyrins under homogeneous conditions. Recycling studies were consistent with low leaching/destruction of the supported Mn porphyrins. The Sil-Cl/MnPY catalysts were more efficient and more selective than SiO2/MnPY ones; alcohol selectivity may be associated with hydrophobic silica surface modification reminiscent of biological cytochrome P450 oxidations. The use of widespread, column chromatography, amorphous silica yielded Sil-Cl/MnPY or SiO2/MnPY catalysts considerably more efficient than the corresponding, previously reported materials with mesoporous Santa Barbara Amorphous No 15 (SBA-15) silica. Among the materials studied, in situ derivatization of Mn(iii) 2-N-pyridylporphyrin by covalent immobilization on Sil-Cl to yield Sil-Cl/MnP1 showed the best catalytic performance with high stability against oxidative destruction and reusability/recyclability.
Efficient Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones Catalyzed by a Phosphine-Free Cobalt-NHC Complex

A simple phosphine-free cobalt-NHC pincer complex has been synthesized and utilized for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones with 2-propanol as hydrogen donor. A broad range of ketones varying from aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic were effectively reduced to their corresponding alcohols in moderate to excellent yields with good tolerance of functional groups.
