KI- NEW CHIRAL FERROCENYLAMINE THIOETHER LIGANDS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS TO CATALYSIS Michael Onyekachi Okoroafor A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Chemistry 1985 ABSTRACT NEW CHIRAL FERROCENYLAMINE THIOETHER LIGANDS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS TO CATALYSIS By. Michael Onyekachi Okoroafor New chiral ferrocenylamine thioether ligands of the type, (fig)— C5H5FeC5H3[CHMeNMe2][SR], R = Me, Et,i-Pr, n—Bu,i—Bu, _t_-Bu,_i_-Pentyl, Ph, CHZPh, p-tolyl, 4-chlorophenyl, have been prepared by lithiation of optically active N,N-dimethyl-1-ferrocenylethylamine followed by reaction with the appropriate disulfide. These compounds are air-stable and were characterized by use of spectroscopic techniques such as 1H and 13C NMR, infrared (IR) and mass spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis. These chiral ferrocenylamine thioethers readily chelate platinum and palladium chloride to form the chiral heterobimetallic complexes, (_R_,§)-C5H5FeC5H3[CHMeNMe2][SR]/MCIZ, (R = Me, _i_-Pr, fl-Pr, _i_-Bu, Ph, p-tolyl, 4-chlorophenyl; M = Pd, Pt). 1H NMR, IR, MS and elemental analysis data were obtained for the chiral complexes. An X-ray crystal structure of (R,§_)-C5H5C5H3[CHMeNMeZIISMeUPdClZ was determined. The catalytic applications of the chiral complexes were examined. The chiral palladium thioether complexes are effective asymmetric Grignard cross-coupling catalysts. The enantiomeric excess (e.e.) of the asymmetric Michael Onyekachi Okoroafor cross-coupling product was determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy in the presence of a chiral shift reagent, Tris(d,d-dicampholylmethanato)europium(III), [Eu(dcm)3]. A possible mechanism of Grignard cross-coupling is proposed. The complexes are also highly effective as selective hydrogenation catalysts, converting dienes to monoenes at room temperature. The chiral dialkyldithiocarbamate derivatives, (§,_S_)-C5H5FeC5H3[CHMe- N Me2][SCSN R2], R = Me and Et, were prepared by reaction of (fi,R)—N,N-di- methyl-lithioferrocenylethylamine with tetraalkylthiuramdisulfide. 1H and 13C NMR, IR, MS and elemental analysis data were obtained. Dynamic N MR studies indicate that restricted rotation occurs around the carbamate carbon- nitrogen bond in these derivatives and two conformers are present at low temperature. Approximate rotational free energy barriers were determined and were correlated with the "thioureide" band in the infrared. All things are possible with those who trust in God. ii DEDICATION In Memory of Our Daughter, Ogechukwu. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I sincerely appreciate the constant guidance, inspiration and encouragement of Professor Carl H.

INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Ferrocene chemistry has generated much interest since its discovery in 1951,1 primarily due to stability and unusual reactivity. It readily undergoes a variety of aromatic substitution reactions such as acylation, alkylation, formy- lation, mercuration and sulfonation.2 Most of these substitution reactions are electrophilic and are limited to electrophiles which do not oxidize the iron atom or destroy the cyclopentadienyl ring—metal bond. Metallation reaction complements electrophilic substitution in that it provides an alternate route to introducing reactive functional groups on ferrocene. Metallation may be achieved by the reaction of ferrocene with n-butylithium, amylsodium or phenylsodium.3 Ferrocene is dilithiated in over 90% yield by a mixture of fl-butyllithium and tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA).4 The dimetallated species could be isolated as a pyrophoric red-orange crystals where TMEDA chelates the dilithium reagent. Application of the lithium reagent isolated as a pure solid, rather than the _i_1_1_ §_i_t_u slurry, results in higher yields in the subsequent reaction with electrophiles. '° (fig—mg» l E. E z’ ‘z()z’ \z< L_/ \___l n-Bu Li TM so A > <7? © In contrast to the dilithioferrocene, synthesis of monolithioferrocene by addition of stoichiometric amounts of n—butyllithium/TMEDA to ferrocene results in a mixture of monolithiated and dilithiated species.5 Another route to lithiofer— rocene where alkyllithium is added to chloromercuriferrocene produces a reactive dialkylmercury compound that forms undesirable side products.6 High yields of lithioferrocene, with no concurrent dilithiation, is however obtained by reaction of _n-butyllithium and bromoferrocene.7 Fe J‘BUU a T at ..‘L ‘ Although the chemistry of ferrocene derivatives resembles that of benzene derivatives, important differences between them arise, when the stereochemistry of these systems is considered. The stereochemistry of metallocene derivatives has generated much interest in the past.8‘12 This interest is due, in part, to the recognition that ferrocene derivatives are chiral if one ring carries two different substituents (5).11 Optical activity, however, arises because there is no Sn axis.11113 Both the central and planar elements of chirality could be manifested in such disubstituted ferrocene <3?"

Scheme 4: Some Reactions of (§H_S_)-N,N,-dimethyl-1-Lithioferrocenylethylamine The organic chemistry of ferrocene and its derivatives is extensive and literally thousands of reactions have been reported. One of the more recent applications is their use as ligands in transition metal complexes.14‘16 Metalla- tion has proved to be a useful synthetic technique for the introduction of potential donors such as phosphines and arsines on to the cyclopentadienyl ring. Schemes 1,2,3 and 4 illustrate the variety of different donor substituents that may be incorporated into ferrocene, dimethylaminomethylferrocene (6), and N,N—dimethyl- -1-ferrocenylethylamine (7) respectively. Davison17 synthesized ferrocenylphos- phines and ferrocenylarsines in high yield from 1,1'—di1ithioferrocene. Addition of elemental sulfur to dilithioferrocene gave 1,2,3-trithia-[3l-ferrocene (9) which can be reduced quantitatively to 1,1'-dithioferrocene (10). The selenium analog (11) has also been reported.18 The [llferroceneophanes, which have phosphorus, arsenic or Group 6A elements as the bridging atoms, are another interesting class of compounds that have been obtained from the reaction of dilithioferrocene with RPClg, RASC1219120 or RgMClz (M = Ge, R = Ph; M = Si; R = Ph, Cl)21 respectively. These compounds exhibit unusual spectroscopic properties as the cyclopentadienyl rings are severely tilted towards the bridge atom. Wrighton and co-workers have used (1,1'-ferrocenediyl)dichlorosilane to derivatize a number of electrode and silica surfaces by Opening the highly reactive, strained C-Si-C bond in the ferrocenephane.22 The ferrocenophanes are cleaved by alkyllithium reagents to give a ring opened ferrocenyllithium reagent. Subsequent reaction with electrophiles gives rise to ferrocene derivatives with mixed functionality as in (15). Cullen20 has also reported to preparation of ring—substituted ferrocenophanes with phos- phorus and arsenic bridges. These are precursors to chiral ferrocenes with mixed functionality that have important applications in asymmetric synthesis. Recently Gautheron23 reported the synthesis of new metalladiselenaferroceno- phanes of the type Fe(n 5-C5H4Se)2M(n 5-C5H4R)2 (where M = Zr, Hf; R = H, to -Bu) known as [3]ferrocenophenes. So e \ M/cpn / Wt 50 F M = Zr, Hf; R =_t_-Bu, H In solution at ambient temperature, these complexes appear to be non-fluxional by a bridge reversal process and Show a staggered conformation of the ferrocene moiety. The coordination chemistry of _1_9 (Scheme 2, available from _1_8_ via nucleophilic substitution of chlorodiphenylphosphine) with chormium, molybdenum, tungsten, iron, and cobalt carbonyls has been investigated.14 The ligand was bidentate with the group VIB carbonyls, but monodentate through phosphorus with Fe and Co. Compound _1_§ adds in Grignard manner to carbonyl species giving 2_024125 and the addition products of acetylferrocene and acetaldehyde15126. Pyridine undergoes a nucleophilic aromatic substitution to yield 23, whose CoX2 complexes (X = Cl, Br, and SCN) have been studied.15 Marr and co—worker327 reported that _1_§_ reacts with paraformaldehyde and dimethylformamide giving 1-dimethylaminomethyl-Z-hydroxymethylferrocene and 1-dimethylaminomethyl-Z—formylferrocene, respectively. Several derivatives of these compounds were reported. Trimethylchlorosilane reacts with _1_3 to give _2_1_28 and 1a undergoes reaction with hexachloroethane to give the 2-chloro compound.29 The latter reaction involves lithium-halogen exchange followed by g-elimination giving tetrachloroethylene. Tri-n—butyl borate reacts with lg to yield, after hydrolysis, boronic acid 21,30 which is an amino acid with the same properties as natural amino acids: it has an isoelectric point and is soluble in aqueous base and acid. More important, _21 undergoes replacement of the boronic acid portion with Cl, Br, and I using cupric chloride, cupric bromide and iodine as the reagents. Finally, various quinones have been added to l_8_ giving the corresponding Keto—alcohols, eg., 36.31 An excess of quinone was used and no evidence was found for addition of two molecules of _l_8_ to the quinone. Chiral ferrocenylphosphines32 are readily prepared by lithiation of optically resolved N,N-dimethyl—1-ferrocenylethylamine _7_, followed by treatment with chlorophosphines. The lithiation of (3)1 with n-butyllithium was previously reported by Ugi and co-workers33 to proceed with high stereoselectivity to give preferentially (R)-N ,N-dimethyl(-l-[(_R_)-2-lithioferrocenyll-ethylamine[(R)-— (31-11.

The stepwise lithiation of (IQ-1 or (§)-7_ with fl-butyllithium, in ether and with _n-butyllithium/TMEDA followed by treatment with chlorodi- phenylphosphine led to the introduction of two diphenylphosphino groups, one onto each of the cyclopentadienyl rings to give (R)-N,N-dimethyl-1-[(_S_)-1',2-bis- (diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethylamine, [(R)-(_S_)-BPPfA] (39) or (_S_)-N,N-dimethyl- -1-[(R)-1',2-bis(diphenylphosphino)—ferrocenyl[ethylamine[(_S_)-(R)-BPPfA](3_7_). The analogous bis(dimethylphosphine) derivatives were also prepared. The preparation of (SHEFE was achieved by transmetallation of (§)~N,N-dimethyl- 1-[(B)—2-(trimethylstannyl)-ferrocenyl]ethylamine 2_6_ that had once been isolated as a precursor for lithioferrocene (§)-(_S_)-§.34 The acetate (R)-(§)-_3_l_ was converted quantitatively into a ferrocenyl phosphine with the hydroxyl group, (R)-1-1[(_S_)-1',2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethanol, [(R)-(§)-BPPfOH], (R)-(§)-§_4, and (IQ-1-[(S)-2-dipheny1phosphine]ferrocenyllethanol [(R)-(_S_)-PPfOH]- (_11)-(_S_)-_3_3_. So far it is obvious that there are a multitude of electrophiles that will react with lithioferrocenes 2, £3, 2_7_, and 2_8_. There are also many lithiated compounds that will react with disulfides and diselenides. The reaction of disulfides with anions has been known for many years, and involves electrophilic rather than nucleophilic sulfur. In organic chemistry, the reaction is used with enolate anions to produce a-sulfenyl carbonyl species (Scheme 5), intermediates on the path to a, B -unsaturated carbonyl compounds.35"37 ll ..., D (7 "fun" MeSSMe ) CO ‘-" Scheme 5: Reaction of Methyldisulfide with a _t_-butylester Enolate In 1981, bis( nS-benzene)chromium was lithiated and the product reacted with methyl disulfide (Scheme 6)”.

Recently in our laboratory,‘“"42 it was found that lithioferrocene and 1,1'-dilithioferrocene react with various disulfides to give thioethers 16 and dithiocarbamates _1_7_ (Scheme 1). Other ferrocene derivatives with sulfur in side chains have been made, but these were the products of a nucleophilic substitution in the side chain (Scheme 8) or electrophilic sulfonation (Scheme 9). Reaction of tetraalkylammonium iodide fl (Scheme 8), with sodium sulfide gave thioether 12 and disulfide £3.43 Sulfur was introduced directly to a ferrocenyl ring via electrophilic sulfonation (Scheme 9).44 Sulfonic acid 44 was converted to the sulfonyl chloride and then the thiol. The thiol was converted to its methyl thioether. The methyl thioether (fl, Scheme 10), was subjected to electrophilic substitution with bis(diomethylamino)methane45. 13 pn 2C0” + PhZCOH p CH NM 1' “26°" 2 e3 Na 3 Cst Fe ‘2) + (=st © Fe Fe 41 :3): 2 © — 2 42 43 Scheme 8: Nucleophilic Substitution Leading to Ferrocem with Sulfur in the Side Chain Fe 3 Ac —) 0180 H _s°3“ @ 4 Scheme 9: Introduction of Sulfur to a Ferrocene Ring by Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution ©SM° Q5“ 95"- .

The lithiation procedure yielding _1_8_, 17., and 2_8_, described previously, offers a distinct advantage over electrophilic substitution in that only a single lithiation product is obtained. Symmetrically 1,l’-disubstituted ferrocenes Fe( n 5-C5H4E), where E is a potential electron donor such as phosphine or arsine, have generated much interest in functioning as rigid chelating ligands.4’16’17’46'43 In particular, 1,1'—bis(diphenylphosphino)-ferrocene (fdpp) strongly chelates Ni and Pd and such complexes have been shown to exhibit extremely high catalytic activity for selective cross-coupling reactions.49 Hughes50 and Christenson51 have reported that fdpp complexes of rhodium are highly selective hydroformylation catalysts. Brubaker and co-workers‘m’41 has reported the properties of some 1,1'-bis(thioether)ferrocene derivatives. We have also reported that the Pd complex of dimethylaminomethylferrocenyl sulfide is an efficient selective 15 hydrogenation catalyst.52 Another recent development in ferrocene chemistry is the use of chiral ferrocene derivatives as ligands in transition metal catalyzed asymmetric synthesis. Rhodium and palladium complexes with chiral ferrocenylphosphine ligands have been used as catalysts in asymmetric hydrogenation,55‘62 Grignard cross-coupling55i63‘70 and hydrosilylation reactions55’71’73. In particular, acylamino acids have been produced in 93% optical purity by the asymmetric hydrogenation of a-acetaminocinnamic acids catalyzed by a rhodium complex of (§)-N,N-dimethyl-1-[(§_)-1',2-bis(di-phenylphosphino)ferrocenyl]ethylamine.

Some metal complexes of these new ferrocenyl thio ether chelating ligands have been prepared and their application as catalysts for selective hydrogenation and asymmetric Grignard cross-coupling reactions examined. In addition the reaction of tetraalkylthiuram disulfides with _2_'_I_ was examined. (CO), 19 F.e >< F|e Pd-Pi’h, O 5‘ ...

C. Catalytic Applications of Compler (i) Asymmetric Grignard Cross—Couplllg Reactions The cross-coupling reactions were carried out in essentially the same manner as was previously reported.67 Since the optical rotation of the coupling product (4-phenyl-1-pentene) was strongly affected by small impurities,70 in addition racemization of products always occurred, it was difficult to determine the optical purity of the product by use of polarimeter. The alkene was thus converted into the methyl ester, of which the enantiomeric purity was determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy in the presence of a chiral shift reagent, Eu(dcm)3.82 Detailed procedures for cross—coupling reactions and conversion of 4-phenyl-1-- pentene to methyl 3-phenyl-butyrate follow. Grignard cross-coupling reaction of allylmagnesium chloride to 4—phenyl-1— pentene usirg complex 5_8_, _5_9_, §_2_, _63, or £4. The catalyst (0.0499 mmol) was placed in a 100 mL round-bottomed schlenk flask equipped with a stirring bar and a septum. The vessel was evacuated 39 and filled with'Ar several times. After being cooled to -78°C, the reaction vessel was charged with 1.41 g (10.0 mmol) l—phenylethyl chloride in 20 mL dry ether and stirred for 2 h at room temperature before addition of allylmagnesium chloride (20 mmol, 10 mL of a 2 M solution in THF) via syringe at -78°C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 0°, stirred for 40 h, and hydrolyzed with 1096 HCl. The organic layer and ether extracts from the aqueous layer were combined, washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution and water, and dried over NaZSO4. Evaporation of solvent and chromatography on a silica gel column (hexane/CHZCIZ) gave 93 to 98.5% of 4-phenyl-1-pentene. 1H NMR (6 ppm) 1.25 (d, 3H, CH3), 2.35 (m, 2H, CH3), 2.80 (m, 1H, CMCH3), 5.00 (m, 2H, CH=CM2), 5.70 (m, 1H, C_H_=CH2), 7.25 (m, 5H, Ph); Lit.83 1H NMR( ppm) 1.24 (d, 3H, CH3), 2.32 (m, 2H, CH2), 2.75 (sex, 1H, CMCH3), 4.80 (s, 1H, CH=_(_3_H2), 4.92 (split d, 1H, CH=CH2), 5.52 (m, 1H, CM—CHZ), 7.0 (5H, Ph); MS m/e (relative intensity), 41 (5, CHZCH=CH2), 77 (15, C6H5), 105 (100, PhCHCH3), 146 (15, M+). Results are shown in Table 20. Conversion of 4-phenyl-l -pentene to methyl 3—phenylbutyrate The reported precedure84 for oxidation of 3—phenyl-1-butene was followed. To a solution of 4—phenyl-1-pentene (0.453 g, 3.1 mmol) in 80 mL te_rt-butyl alcohol were added a solution of 1.24 g (9.0 mmol) K2CO3 in 60 mL of water and a solution of 5.13 g (24 mmol) of sodium periodate and 0.63 g (4.0 mmol) of KMnO4 in 60 mL of water. The solution was adjusted to pH 8.5 with 2N aqueous NaOH and was stirred overnight. After _th-butyl alcohol was removed under reduced pressure, the aqueous. solution was acidified with concentrated HCl to pH 2.5, and sodium bisulfite was added until the solution became off-white. The solution was extracted with ether and the extracts were dried over Na2SO4, concentrated and distilled [120-135°C (2mm)]. A solution of the acid thus obtained (0.295 g, 128 mmol) and p-toulenesulfonic acid (40 mg) in 10 mL of 40 methanol was refluxed for 3 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was taken up in ether. The solution was washed with 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide dried over anhydrous N82504, and evaporated. The residue was distilled [110-130°C (2mm)] to give about 72-85% of methyl 3-phenyl—butyrate; 1H NMR (6 ppm), 1.29 (d, J = 7.0 Hz, 3H, CHC_H_3), 2.53 (dd, Jgem = 15 Hz, Jvic = 8 Hz, 1H, CMZCH), 2.63 (dd, Jgem = 15 Hz, Jvic = 8 Hz, 1H, CMZCH), 3.28 (sex, J = 7.0 Hz, 1H, CH2CMPhMe), 3.61 (s, 3H, OCH3), 7.16-7.45 (m, 5H, “Ph). 1H NMR spectroscopy with the chiral shift reagent Eu(dcm)3 showed varying enantiomeric excess (e.e) values as the catalyst was varied (results in Table 20). (ii) Selective Hydrogenation of Conjugated Dienes to Alkenes with _5_8_, 922.5.- In all the cases studied, a period of induction was observed except when additives were introduced. The induction time was dependent on the catalyst. Hydrogenation of 1,3-cyclooctadiene with _5_8_, gig-94 in acetone at 67 psi. The complex (2.0 x 10‘5 mol), acetone (9.0 mL) and 1,3 cyclooctadiene (0.91 mL, 7.45 x 10'3 mol) were added to a 100 mL pressure bottle with a pressure gauge and stirring bar. The bottle was evacuated and filled several times with H2 to a pressure of 67 psi. After an induction period, uptake of H2 began and slowed after absorption of about 5.5 x 10"3 mol of H2. The initial turnover rate, product analysis at the end of reaction, and the calculated selectivity are shown in Table 17. Solvent Effects on Hydrogenation of 1 ,3—Cyclohexadiene at Room Temperature The complex (2.0 x 10'5 mol), 1,3-cyclohexadiene (7.45 x 10‘3 mol) and 9.0 mL of various solvents (acetone, CCl4/acetone, 2:1 and 1:1, and CCl4) 41 were added to a 100 mL pressure bottle with a pressure gauge and stirring bar. The bottle was evacuated and filled several times with H2 to a predetermined pressure. The hydrogenation was dependent on the chosen solvent. Results are shown in Table 18. X-ray Structure Determination of dichloro[(_R_-1 -(§)-2—Methylthioferrocenylethyl- dimethylamine]palladium(II)-_5_8_. Data Collection A deep purpule pyramidal crystal of dichloro[(§)-1-(_S_)-2-Methylthioferrocenyl- ethyldimethylamine]palladium(II), 015H21C12FePdNS, having approximate dimensions of 0.20 x 0.25 x 0.45 mm, was mounted in a glass capillary in a random orientation. Preliminary examination and data collection were performed with MoKa radiation ( A = 0.71073 A) on a Nicolet P3F computer controlled 4-circle diffractometer equipped with a graphite crystal incident beam monochro- mator. Cell constants and an orientation matrix for data collection were obtained from least-squares refinement, using the setting angles of 20 reflections in the range 35 < 2 e < 30°. The orthorhombic cell parameters and calculated volume are: a = 9.226(3), b = 12.219(4), c = 15.448(5) A, V = 1741.5(8) A3. For Z = 4 and F.W. = 480.56 the calculated density is 1.83 g/cm3. From the systematic absences of: h00 h = 2n+1 0k0 k = 2n+1 001 1 = 2n+1 and from subsequent least-squares refinement, the space group was determined to be P212121 (# 19). The data were collected at a temperature of 23(1)°C using the 2theta-theta scan technique. The scan rate varied from 4 to 30 °/ min (in 2 9 ). The variable 42 scan rate allows rapid data collection for intense reflections where a fast scan rate is used and assures good counting statistics for weak reflections where a slow scan rate is used. Data were collected to a maximum 2 e of 60°. The scan range (in deg.) was determined as a function of 2 6 to correct for the separation of the KO, doubletl; the scan width was calculated as follows: 2 9 scan width = 2.00 (26 (K0, 2) - (29 (K o 1)) The ratio of peak counting time to background counting time was 1:1. The diameter of the incident beam collimator was 1.0 mm and the crystal to detector distance was 19 cm. Data Reduction A total of 2937 reflections were collected, of which 2912 were unique and not systematically absent. As a check on crystal and electronic stability 3 representative reflections were measured every 45 reflections. The slope of the least-squares line through a plot of intensity versus time was -17(16) counts/hour which correspondsto a total loss in intensity of 0.3%. A linear decay correction was applied with correction factors on I ranging from 1.000 to 1.003 and with an average value of 1.002. Lorentz and polarization corrections were applied to the data. The linear absorption coefficient is 22.7 cm‘1 for Mo KO, radiation. An empirical absorption correction based on a series of psi-scans was applied to the data. Relative transmission coefficients ranged from 0.892 to 0.999 with an average value of 0.959. A secondary extinction correction was applied.128 The final coefficient, refined in least-squares, was -0.344 x 10"8 (in absolute units). Structure Solution and Refinement The structure was solved using the Patterson heavy-atom method which 43 revealed the position of the Pd atom. The remaining atoms were located in succeeding difference Fourier syntheses. Hydrogen atoms were located and their positions and isotropic thermal parameters were refined. Scattering factors were taken from Cromer and Waber.129 Anomalous dispersion effects were included in Fc;130 the values for Af' and A f" were those of Cromer.1 Only the 2175 reflections having intensities greater than 3.0 times their standard deviation were used in the refinements. The final cycle of refinement included 275 variable parameters and converged (largest parameter shift was 0.25 times ) with unweighted and weighted agreement factors of: R1=2||Fo|-| Fcll /2| Fo|=0.029 R2=SQRT(X w ( |Fo|-| Fc|)2/z w F02) = 0.029 The standard deviation of an observation of unit weight was 1.29. The standard deviation of an observation of unit weight was 1.29. The highest peak in the final difference Fourier had a height of 0.59 e/A3 with an estimated error based on o F of 0.09.131 Plots of 2w( |Fo| - |Fc| )2 versus | F0 | , reflection order in data collection, sin 6/1 , and various classes of indices showed no unusual trends. All calculations were performed on a VAX-11 computer using SDP-PLUS.132 III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A. (MmsHsFeC5H3ICH(CH3)N(CH3)2HSRI (R = Me, Et, i-Pr, _n-Pr, n—Bu, i-Bu, g-Bu, Ph, CHZPh, i-Pent, p-toly, 4-CI-Ph There has been considerable interest in chiral ferrocenylphosphine ligands that possess planar chirality due to a 1,2-unsymmetrically substituted cyclopen- tadienyl ring and are highly effective as ligands in transition metal catalyzed asymmetric synthesis.85986 Though few sulfide complexes have been used as ligands in catalysis, the preparation of several chiral ferrocenylsulfide com— plexes was undertaken so that possible catalytic applications to hydrogenation and asymmetric synthesis could be investigated. Earlier results53 obtained in the syntheses of ferrocenyiamine sulfides in our laboratory revealed poor yields (from 01.1% yield for phenyl derivative to 45% yield for ethyl derivative) and products were obtained as yellow powders, suggesting that products may be salts of the amine and not free ligands. To circumvent this problem, it was observed that it is necessary to deprotonate the product by washing with aqueous NaHCO3 prior to final separation. This has eventually resulted in high yeilds in this work. Nesmeyanov has also reported that quaternary ammonium salts of the general formula [C5H5FeC5H4CH2N(CH3)2- CH2R1X", were prepared in high yields by the action of the corresponding alkyl halides on (dimethylamino-methyl)ferrocene even at low temperature.87:88 This factor will decrease the yield of the chiral ferrocenyl tertiary amine thioethers. To avoid the problem, we have consistently used dry ether as the solvent in the synthesis and not halogenated organic solvents (CHZClg, CHCl3, CC14), even though the starting material is highly soluble in such solvents. 44 45 1. Preparation A number of previously unknown chiral ferrocenylamine thioether ligands of the type (_11,§_)-C5H5FeC5H3[CH(CH3)N(CH3)2][SR] where R = Me, Et,_i_-Pr, _n-Pr, fl-Bu, _i_-Bu, .t_-Bu, _i_-Pent, Ph, CHZPh, p-toyl, 4—Cl-Ph, have been prepared in a general, high yield, one step synthesis shown in scheme 13. The starting material (_R)—N,N—dimethyl-l-ferrocenyl ethylamine [(_I}_)-_7_] was prepared from ferrocene according to Ugi's procedure77 and was resolved by using (§)-(+)-tartaric acid. As illustrated by Ugi,33 the (BO-amine [(5)4], is stereoselectively lithiated by fl-butyllithium to give 96% of the (PM-(3)1. The (EU-(B) derivative is thought to be stabilized by the coordination of the adjacent nitrogen atom (in the side chain) to the lithium atom. The lithiated chiral ferrocene derivative is then treated with the appropriate disulfides to produce the product as (§)-(§_)-amines. In some cases (like in preparation of the phenyl derivative), it may be necessary to reflux the reaction mixture before work-up. The chiral ferrocenyl-amine sulfide products (iii-_S_?) are usually deprotonated by washing with aqueous NaHCO3 before separation by chromatography on alumina or silica gel column. It should be noted here that the chiral ferrocenylamine sulfide compounds M5351 contain two elements of chirality. The (R) configuration refers to the asymmetric carbon while the (§) configuration refers to the planar chirality. The yields of these products are fairly high (ranging from 45% yield in the ethyl derivative to 85% yield in the p-tolyl derivative) basically due to the modified procedure adopted in this work.87 The (§)-N,N-dimethyl-1-[(3)-2-lithio- ferrocenyl]ethylamine, [(§)-(§)-_7_], was not isolated here but rather was prepared fresh for each reaction. 2. 1H NMR The 250 MHz 1H NMR data for the chiral ferrocenylamine thioethers 46 Eioéicofiocozoé .386 .535 .cd Edam .33 :51“... ..Etm 2 oEozom com .5 .62 n x $18 3.3-? c. -9 «a: z o: rpm I No: A: e mm... a :2“ u 3.. 2.: a 3.: a an.“ 2.. e 8.." n 3..— E n 2; A: u 2; a as.“ a m~.~ a co.~ u mn._ 7 A: J. m 8.“ c 2.; c 2...

The 1H NMR spectra of these compounds are typical of 1,2—unsym metrically disubstituted ferrocenes in which one of the rings is unsubstituted. Rosenblum and Woodward89 have shown that there is free rotation about the Fe-Cp axis in ferrocenes. The barrier to rotation in ferrocene is only about one-third that of the 2 methyl groups in ethane.90 Consequently, the unsubstituted C5H5 ring appears as a singlet at 4.06-4.17 ppm region (see figures 1-4). Another striking feature of these spectra is the diastereotopic nature of the S-CHZ protons. The 2 methylene protons appear at different positions with their appropriate multiplicity. Their splitting pattern is given in diagramatic form in Figure 5. In the case of the isopentyl derivative, (fi,§)—_5_§ (Figure 3), the total number of peaks expected from the methylene protons should be 2(23) = 16. However, the actual number observed was 15 due to overlap of the central peaks. The upfield peaks (1.90—2.12 ppm) of NMez in these compounds are due to the ring current effect. The inversion of the pyramidal N of NMez is faster than the NMR time scale at room temperature, so the nitrogen methyls appear as singlet in these compounds. Assignments of the disubstituted ring protons H3, H4, and H5 cannot be made with absolute certainty, since a number of 1H NMR studies91“93 have shown that a single substituent may deshield or shield positions 3 and 4, in any combination relative to ferrocene. However, tentative assignments for H3, H4, and H5 have been given in Table 2 and deutera- tion studies may be necessary to make unambiguous assignments. The 250 MHz 1H NMR (§-§)-_5_§, R = CHZPh is given in Figure 1. One point is striking here. The benzylic protons, although diastereotopic, this property was not observed in the 1H NMR spectra because, the resonance due to the benzylic protons is partially obscurred probably, by a combination of the cyclo- pentadienyl and phenyl ring protons. In contrast, the diastereotopic nature 51 JL M. 11111lLLlllllllllllllLllllllLLlljllLlllllllllllllLllLlLlJllllLll‘lllLLLLlllJllllllllilLllll 8 7 5 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 Figure l. 250 MHz H NMR spectrum of §§_, R - CH Ph. 2 52 JL .

The methyl protons of the sulfide link gave an upfield triplet signal at 1.15 ppm as expected, while the methyl protons at the chiral carbon appeared as a doublet at 1.35 ppm. The appearance of a singlet peak at 4.10 ppm confirmed the presence of an unsubstituted cyclo- pentadienyl ring, while the multiplet peaks at 4.20 ppm accounted for the disubstituted Cp ring. 3. 13c NMR 13C N MR is a sensitive tool for measuring the electron density distribution on the cyclopentadienyl ring in ferrocene.42 Substituents on the ring induce screening of the nuclei in two different ways, one being due to the magnetic anisotropy of the substituent and the second to the electronic effect of the substitutent that consists of both resonance and inductive components. The 13C NMR data for the chiral ferrocenylamine thio ether ligands (iii-fl) are presented in Table 3. Koridze94 has assigned the signals in methoxyferrocene on the basis of deuterium labelling studies. Since such labelling studies were not carried out in this work, most of the assignments here could be considered as tentative. However, the assignment of Cl and C2 in the 1,2-disubstituted cyclopentadienyl ring appear reasonable. C2 reflects the inductive and field effects of the substituents (~SR) and exhibits the widest range of values of any of the ring carbons. The C2 resonance in (fi,§)—§§ (i.e. p-tolyl derivative) is shifted downfield by 26.1 ppm, relative to ferrocene (68.2 ppm“), whereas the 4-chlorophenyl derivative, (_11,§_)—§I_, is deshielded by 24.9 ppm. the assignments of C1 and the unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl ring are reasonable, but assignments of C3, C4 and C5 are more difficult. In addition, it is incorrect to extrapolate 13C data to 1H data. In some cases the chemical shift ordering is the same, 58 a =.«_ a 3: c ..2 a «.2 «Rub: a «.2 D » 84 um...— .E& o 85.2868. 58: ... matrono 5 ..«Huwfl .zm~£«=0.2.«=o.=2«=mo£m5.0.2me .6. 3.5 as: 02 was :3 s ....«« a «.3 a «.2 u «.3 c m.«« a «.2 3 On a «.2. a «.2 a «.3 a «.3 «022 U m.mm v w.mm v ~43 U w.~..m :0! 96m méc «.2. n.om mU.vU. any n 039—.

Infrared (IR) SpeCtra As reported by Rosenblum,2 the two most important peaks in the infrared spectra of ferrocenederivatives, in which one ring is unsubstituted, appear around 1000 and 1100 cm‘l. In all the chiral ferrocenylamine thioether ligands (fl-Sl), peaks were observed in this region, thus confirming substitution in one ferrocenyl ring of these compounds. The IR data are shown in the experimen- tal section. A general inspection of the IR data indicates that certain frequencies are common to all the chiral ferrocenylamine thioether compounds (fl-fl). These frequencies have been tentatively assigned by comparison with the vibrational spectra of ferrocene2 and dimethylferrocenefi’8 The high frequency infrared bands at 3100-2860 cm‘1 are assigned to C-H stretching frequencies. The strong absorption around 1450-1380 cm'1 may be associated with alkyl C-H bend whereas the strong absorption at 1100-1050 cm“1 could be assigned to ring breathing modes. The broad band absorptions in the region of 500-450 cm'1 may be associated with ring-metal vibrations such as an asymmetric ring-metal tilt and an asymmetric ring—metal stretch. The mass spectral data (shown in the experimental section) reveal some important fragments such as M+, FeCp, C5H5, HCMeNMeZ, vinylferrocene and M+-SR. In addition to these fragments, peaks consistent with the less abundant isotopes 54Fe, 57Fe, and 34S were observed. Cullen57’99 has determined the crystal structure of [(PPFA)Rh(NBD)]PF6, where PPFA is (fi,_S_)-1-(2-di-phenylphosphinoferrocenyl)ethyldimethylamine; NBD is norbornadiene, and concluded that the chiral ferrocenyl phosphine 64 ligand coordinated to rhodium through both the phosphorous and nitrogen atoms. Since there is much interest in ligands which have both "hard" and "soft" properties, investigation of the chelation of the chiral ferrocenylamine sulfide, (fi-fl) with transition metals, such as palladium and platinum, forms the basis of interest in this work. In addition, the effectiveness of these chiral ligands in transition metal catalyzed asymmetric synthesis has been explored. B. Palladium Complexes of (_l}_,§)-C5H5Fe05F3[CHMeNMeZISR] (R = Me, _i_-Pr, n—Pr, _i_-Bu, Ph, p—tolyl, 4-Cl—Ph) and Platinum Complexes of (§-_S_)-C5H5Fe05H3— [CHMeN Me218-4-Cl—Ph] 1. Preparation Palladium and platinum complexes, (_5_8-§_5_), were made by allowing a benzene solution of the chiral ferrocenylamine sulfides, (fig, g_8_, fig, _5_1_, _5_1, _5_§_, 331), to react with bis(benzonitrile) adducts of palladium and platinum chloride salts (Scheme 14). The heterobimetallic complexes are insoluble in benzene: the chiral palladium ferrocenylamine sulfide complexes precipitated immediately while the platinum analog precipitated after being stirred for 8 days. The palladium complexes are soluble in acetone, methylene chloride and chloroform, except the phenyl and tolyl derivatives which were only slightly soluble in these solvents. The platinum complex (51) is also soluble in these solvents. Analytically pure samples were obtained by the slow evaporation of the mixed solvent system, methylene chloride-petroleum ether. Dichloro[(_11)-1-(_S_)‘2-methylthioferrocenylethyldimethyl-amine]palladium(1l), (18), gave the best crystals as reflected in the elemental analysis and x-ray crystal structure. 65 s" W ~13, «9 Me 1:0 thmz [PhCN12MC12 F. 5" \c' Fe Benzene ’ © R = Me, M=p¢ m I (3.9-Ligands EPI‘, E—Ph Sche me 14 i-Bu — , Ph, p—tOlyl’ 4-Cl--Ph M = Pt, R = 4431’?” 66 o «... « ««.« o 3... « «...

The chiral ferrocenylamine thioether ligand undergoes a significant change in the 1H NMR spectra upon complexing with platinum or palladium chlorides. Figure 9 indicates that the most striking difference in the 1H NMR spectra of the complexed ligand relative to the free ligand is the large downfield shift of the resonance due to H3, H4 and H5 of the substituted cyclopentadienyl ring. This deshielding effect was originally thought to be due to a severe tilting of the cyclopentadienyl rings where H 3, H4 and H5 were further from the shielding iron atom.100 The crystal structure of the chiral methylthioether palladium complex (fl), (discussed in detail in a later section) however, indicated that the cyclopentadienyl ring was tilted 3.2° from the plane. The large downfield shift of H3, H4 and H5 is either due to the magnetic anisotropy or the inductive effect of the metal chloride. A further difference between the 1H N MR spectra of the free ligand and complexed methyl ligand is the deshielding of the alkyl protons. In particular, the resonance due to sulfur methyl protons shifts from 2.30 to 2.70 ppm. Sokolov had observed that the chemical shifts of two methyl groups in N M62 of a 2-dimethylaminomethylferrocenyl palladium chloride dimer are different (2.85 and 3.00 ppm respectively).101 The same splitting of NMez protons were observed in this case for the methyl complex (_5_8_), indicating the obvious diastereotopic nature of these methyl groups. The two peaks appeared at 2.31 and 3.21 ppm respectively (see Figure 9). The chemical shifts of the two methyl groups in NMe2 of the metal complexes (gig-Q), are much more downfield than those of the corresponding free ligands and the chemical shift difference of the two methyl groups (0.90 ppm) is large because the inversion of the pyramidal N of these metal complexes is inhibited by a rigid 6-member Tabkis Metal-8, Metal-N, and Metal-Cl Stretching led. in Several Metal Complexes Compound dC12 Thioether-metal complexes Unidentete amine-Metal complexes ( PllSC3H58Ph)?dC12 a This work.

Infrared Spectra (IR) The metal-N, metal—Cl, and metal-S stretching modes of several complexes are given in Table 5. The most striking change occurs in the low frequency region where metal-ligand vibrations are prevalent. Metal-sulfur bands are often weak and occur in a region similar to metal-chloride bands. Consequently, the absorptions around 297 to 323 cm‘1 region in complexes 22, Q, Q, and §_3_, have been assigned to Pd-S and/or Pd-Cl stretches. Metal-nitrogen stretches occur at a higher frequency region, so the peaks around 460 to 482 cm‘1 region are assigned to Pd—N in the complexes. These assignments are, however, tentative since in complex molecules of low symmetry, more than one fundamental mode; often contributes to a given peak.105 It should be noted that the stretching A frequencies assigned to complexes 5_9_, 60, 6_2_ and 63 are in close agreement with those reported for the chelated thioether complex, (PhSC3HSSPh)PdC12,104 and most other values in the literaturemsv107 4.

The structure and numbering scheme of dichloro[(_f_{_)-1-(_S_).2-methylthiofer- rocenylethyldimethylaminelpalladiumfl1), §_8_, is shown in Figure 10, while a stereoview is given in Figure 11. Hydrogen atoms have been omitted for clarity. A total of 2937 reflections were collected, of which 2912 were unique and not systematically absent. As a check on crystal and electronic stability, three representative reflections were measured every 45 reflections. The slope of the least-squares line through a plot of intensity versus time was -17 (16) counts/hour which corresponds to a total loss in intensity of 0.396. A linear 771‘ Figure 10: Structure and Numbering Scheme for the Comples C5H5FeC5H3[CHMeNMe2][SMel/PdC12, fl 72 Figure 11: Stereoview of the Complex C5li5FeC5H3ICHMeNMeZIISMel/PdClz, fl 73 decay correction was applied with correction factors on 1 ranging from 1.000 to 1.003 and with an average value of 1.002. The final coefficient, refined in least-quares, was -0.344 x 10’8 (in absolute units). The positional parameters are given in Table 6, while general temperature factor expressions are given in Tables 7-9. The palladium atom is in a square planar environment where the ferrocenylamine thioether ligand chelates to the palladium atom through nitrogen and sulfur atoms. The bond distances and bond angles for the complex are presented in Table 11 and Table 12 and are fairly typical. the iron-carbon distances range from 2.02(6) A to 2.050(6) A with an average value of 2.033(7) A that compares favorably with that of ferrocene108 and 1,1'-bis(siobutylthio)ferrocene palladium- dichloride.42 The carbon-carbon distances in the cyclopentadienyl ring vary - from 1.378(12) A to 1.429(7) A, averaging at 1.407(1) A, a value typical of ferrocene. The C-C-C bond angles within the two rings vary from 106.7(7) to 109.2(7)°, with an average angle of 108.01° that is the typical angle for a regular, planar pentagon. The Pd-S bond length is 2.288(1) A which compares favorably with the sum of the covalent radii (2.35 A)109 and suggests that there is little or no 1! -bonding in the Pd—S bond. The Pd—Cl bond, which is trans to the sulfur atom, shows no apparent trans bond lengthening, indicating that the thioether ligand has a negligible trans-influence.110 The Pd-Cl bond distances have an average value of 2.307(5) A almost equal to the. sum of the Pauling covalent radii, 2.31 A.109 The Pd-N bond length is 2.159(4) A, and is comparable to the sum of ' the Pauling covalent radii. Seyferth111 has reported a crystal structure of a heterobinuclear species (Ph3P)PdFe(C5H4S)2 where thiolate groups chelate to palladium.

Seyferth proposed the presence of a weak dative Fe Pd bond on the basis of a Fe-Pd distance of 2.878(1) A. The structure of the methyl palladium complex, _5_‘§, makes it impossible for any interaction between Pd and Fe to occur. The two cyclopentadienyl rings are eclipsed and are slightly tilted with respect to each other, the dihedral angle being, 3.2°. The planes containing the cyclopentadienyl rings are almost orthogonal to the plane containing the palladium, sulfur, nitrogen and chlorine atoms.

The rich and diverse chemistry of dithio acid and dithiolate complexes has been extensively covered in many reviews.1 1 3 1. Preparation Tatraalkylthiuram disulfides undergo nucleophilic attack at the disulfide linkage by cyanide ions, amines and Grignard reagents.115 Cava116 has reported that aryllithium derivatives react with tetraisopropylthiuram disulfide to give dithiocarbamate esters that were precursors to aromatic thiols. Recently McCulloch41 reported that dilithioferrocene and lithioferrocene reacted with a series of tetraalkylthiuram disulfides giving rise to bis(dialkyldithiocarbamate)- 99 ferrocene derivatives and monosubstituted dialkyldithiocarbamateferrocene derivatives respectively. Reaction of l-dimethylaminomethyl-Z-lithioferrocene with tetraalkylthiuram disulfide also gave rise to l-dimethylaminomethyl-Z- (dialkyldithiocarbamate)ferrocene derivatives.54 Reaction of (l_l_,_Ii)—1—dimethylaminoethyl-Z-Iithioferrocene, [(§)-(§_)-2_Z_]. with tetramethylthiuram disulfide and tetraethylthiuram disulfide gave rise to a high yield of (_13_,_S_)-1-(dimethylaminoethyl)—2—(dimethyldithiocar bamate)—ferrocene, fl, and (R,§)-1-(dimethylaminoethyl)-2-(diethyldithiocar- bamate)ferrocene, 6_7_, respectively (Scheme 15). These new compounds contain a chiral center and plane of symmetry that is absent in bis(dialkyldithiocarbamate)- ferrocene derivates and dialkyldithiocarbamateferrocene derivatives.41 They also contain a chiral center that is absent in 1-dimethylaminomethyl-Z-dialkyl- - (dithiocarbamate ferrocene.54 In contrast to the results obtained by Cava, only the desired product and no thioamide derivative was obtained. The thioamide species arise from competing nucleophilic attack at the thione carbon rather than at the sulfur—sulfur bond in the tetraalkylthiuram disulfide. 2. 1N NMR The 250 MHz 1N NMR data for (fi,_S__)-1-(dimethylaminoethyl)-2—(dialkyl- dithiocarbamate)ferrocene derivatives, :33 and £1, are given in Table 17. The 1H NMR spectra of these ligands are similar to the spectra obtained for the chiral ferrocenyl-thioether compounds in the previous section, (Table 2). A comparison of the chemical shifts of the substituted ring protons in Table 17 and Table 2 revealed that the SCSNR2 group substituted at ring exhibit more downfield peak than SR substituted ring. This is to be expected since the greater electron withdrawing effect of the SCSNR2 group causes a greater deshielding of the ring protons, resulting in a more downfield peak.91192 At 100 5.... 6 0... 0.... o 2.... . .... .6... a... m 2.. 0 a... .25 3.. 0 2.. 0 on.n 0 .«.N 6 :_.n 0 3.. z 3..-... a 3.. m 2.. 6 .0... 0 0.... a 0... 0 .... m 3.. a z... m 9.... 0 0.... ... 8.. 0 60.. 6:0 .

At lower temperatures however, two separate signals were observed for the N,N-- dialkyl signals a phenomenon that will be discussed in detail later. 3. 13c NMR The 13C NMR data for the chiral carbamate derivatives, fig and g are given in Table 18. During acquisition of the 13C NMR data, the parameters PW = 4 us and Rd = 4s were used since the thiocarbonyl carbon has a long relaxation time, T1.42 The low field signal around 198.9 ppm is attributed to the thiocarbonyl carbon. The other assignments shown in table 18 are tentative but results from other work do support these assignments“,54 The assignments of C3 < C4 < C5 are based on previous conclusions about deshielding.41 4.

Gated decoupled 13C NMR of _6_6_. 106 The second resonance form introduces a degree of double bond character into the carbon—nitrogen bond which prevents free rotation around the C-N bond. The 1H NMR and 13C NMR data in Table 17 and Table 18 show that two separate signals were observed for the N ,N-dialkyl group of the diethyldithio- carbamate ferrocene derivative, g, at room temperature, but the dimethyldithio- carbamateferrocene derivative, gig, are observed only at a lower temperature (12°C). When the temperature is raised, the two N,N-dialkyl signals coalesce, and as the fast exchange limit is approached they sharpen to a single peak. The protons on the cyclopentadienyl rings show no such variation with temperature. The behavior of the alkyl protons is due to the restricted rotation around the carbamate C-N bond and a rough approximation of the barrier to rotation about this bond has been determined. NMR parameters, rate constants and an approximate value of the barrier to rotation in compounds §§_, and _61, are given in Table 19. The rate constant, kc, at the coalescence temperature, Tc, was determined from the peak separation, AV, at slow exchange by using the equation117 kc = "AV/(2)1”. An approximate rotational free energy barrier was obtained from the Eyring equation: AG* = 2.303RT[10.3-log(Kc/TC)]. The values of the rotational barriers are 15.36 and 15.81 kcal/mol for compounds g and 6_.7_, respectively. These AG values, though of fairly narrow range, reveal that the rotational barrier of the NEt2 in Q is higher than that of N M82 in fig. This is to be expected since the diethylamino group is more sterically hindered than the dimethylamino group in a 1,2-disubstituted cyclopentadienyl ring. Hollaway118 has determined'rotational barriers about the carbamate 107 1 Figure 14.

Hollaway was able to correlate the C-N double bond character with the "thioureide" band between 1489 and 1498 cm‘1 in the infrared region. The "thioureide" band, which has been assigned to the partial double bond character in the carbon-nitrogen bond, was observed at 1495 cm‘1 for the chiral dimethylaminoethyldimethyldithio carbamate derivative _6_§_, and 1489 cm‘1 for the dimethylaminoethyldiethyldithio carbamate derivative _61. The variable temperature 1H NMR spectrum for the chiral dimethylaminoethyl- dimethyldithio carbamate derivative, Q, is shown in Figure 14. D. Catalytic Applications of Complexes 1. Asymmetric Grignard Cross-Coupling Reactions Asymmetric carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions are of great significance for the synthesis of optically active compounds, and the use of chiral transition— metal catalysts for such reactions has recently attracted considerable attention due to a number of advantages of catalytic asymmetric synthesis.120 The first report on asymmetric Grignard cross-coupling appeared in 1973, where 2,3—o-isoproylidene—2,3—dihydroxyl-1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane ( DIO P) was used as a chiral ligand on a nickel catalyst and 7-16% of the products were obtained in the reaction of (l-phenylethyl)magnesium chloride. Since the first report in 1975 that Pd complexes catalyze the coupling of Grignard reagents with organic halides,122 the method has been used with a variety of Grignard reagents and halogenated species. Kumada and co-workers123 has examined various types of chiral ferrocenylphosphine ligands for the nickel- or palladium-catalyzed reaction of (l-phenylethylFmagnesium chloride with vinyl bromide and found that the ferrocene planar chirality played an important 112 role rather than the carbon centered chirality on the side chain of the ferocene and concluded that the asymmetric induction on the coupling product was mainly determined by transmetallation of the alkyl group from the Grignard reagent to the transition-metal catalyst and the most important intermediate of the reaction was the diastereomeric transition state shown below. The development of such transition metal catalysis depends largely on the availability of suitable ligating compounds. Up to now only chiral phosphines or phosphineamine combinations have provided satisfactory results.67,124 This is a severe limitation for the synthesis of phosphines is not simple and the derived ligands, once obtained, are often sensitive, especially to oxidation by air. These condiderations induced us to investigate application of our new I chiral ferrocenylthioether compounds as potential ligands. While in the process of this work, Kellogg and his co--workers,69 reported the asymmetric Grignard cross-coupling reactions of l-phenylethylmagnesium chloride with vinyl bromide by using nickel catalyzed bi- and polydentate sulfide ligands and obtained good Asymmetric Grignard Cross—Coupling Reactions Using Chiral Thioether Complexes Catalyst L33 L3 .3 Lg =1 :1 21 23 :1 u "U 3‘ II ..b l C) n—n l "U 3' a Reference 69 113 Table 20 Chemical Yield(%) 97.5 95.0 96.0 96.0 94.5 100 e.e.(%) 26.0 22.3 18.2 25.5 16.5 16.9 Configuration 114 chemical yield but poor enantiomeric purity (0.8-16.9% e.e.).

Since the optical rotation of the coupling product 4-phenyl—1-pentene was strongly affected by small impurities70 and in addition recemization of products always occur, it was difficult to determine the optical purity by use of a polarimeter. The alkene was converted into the methylester, the enantiomeric purity of which was determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy in the presence of a chiral shift reagent, Eu(dcm)3.82 The chemical shift ( 6), and the enantiomeric shift difference ( AA5 ) depend on the concentration of the chiral shift reagent and the temperature at a constant concentration of the substrate (0.5 M) in CDCl3 as shown in Figures 17 and 18 respectively. At room temperature the 1H NMR signal of the methyl protons of the methyl ester is a singlet when no chiral shift reagent is present. Upon addition of the shift reagent the signal separates into two distinct singlets. The signal shifted downfield and AAA increased as the concentration of the chiral shift reagent increased. When the concentration of the chiral shift reagent was 0.27 M, AAG was large enough for the determination of the enantiomeric excess (e.e.) (see Figure 17 and 18).

The resulting configura- tion in all cases were _S_ (see Table 20). The enantiomeric excess (e.e) range from 16.5 to 26.0 e.e (_S_) and is much higher than those reported by Kellogg.69 The Grignard cross-coupling reaction mechanism using phosphine-amine-palladium complex was postulated by Kumada.123 Based on that we have also proposed a mechanism for the chiral thioether-palladium catalyzed reaction (Scheme 16). It should be noted from our results that the planar chirality played an important role rather than the carbon centered chirality of the side chain of the ferrocenyl ligand in the asymmetric induction. Thus the configuration of the coupling product was consistent with the planar chirality of the chiral ferrocenylaminethioether-Pd catalysts. 2. Selective Hydrogenation of Conjugated Dienes to Alkenes Hydrogenation by homogeneous catalysts is well-developed.133 Of the many known complexes, those of Group VIII metals with amines and sulfides have been used with varying degrees of success. In 1967 PtC12(SPh2)2 was found to be selective for the hydrogenation of dienes to monoenes in the presence of SnC12.134 Treatment of PdClg or NadeCI4 with tertiary amines resulted in an active selective catalyst.135 The same was true of PdClZ when treated with 2,2'—bipyridine and NaBH4.136 Palladium chloride and thioethers gave complexes which upon reduction by diisobutylaluminum hydride, were selective catalysts.”7 The thioetherrhodium complex, RhClg(SEt2)3 hydrogenates maleic acid, provided maleic acid is present in excess.138’141 119 x83 x53 x32 {oz 25. 25. m2... m2... 02.9.83. 0 Sum 2.3 3.3m co... 3.8 3:2. 8.23 8.: $6 3.3 3.2 v.3 «.2 93 96mm 8... m4 m.mm . 8&3 as... 73 9mm némm 8.: v.2 «.mm mm.m~ 8.3.

In... _ a _ _ O 123 In view of the selective hydrogenation of thioether-palladium complexes,52’138 we have carried out selective hydrogenation of conjugated dienes to alkenes using ferrocenylamine thioether-palladium complexes 58, 62-64. Our results have previously reported that hydrogenations using thioether- palladium complex failed if reducing agents were added.52 Hydrogenation of 1,3-cyclooctadiene proceeded conveniently in acetone at 67 psi (see Figure 18). This is a homogeneous reaction system without H20 or reducing agents and reaction proceeds at a useful rate (up to 462 mol/mol Pd.Hr) to afford a high conversion of nearly 9696. As time passed the red solution became brown but remained homogeneous. Most of the product at the end'of reaction was cyclooctene, but some cyclooctane was present. The compounds present after each of the hydrogenation reactions were 1,3-cyclooctadiene, cyclooctene and cyclooctane. The (diene + monoene):a1kane ratio was determined by gas chromatography, the two peaks being separated typically by more than 0.8 minutes. The ratio of the diene to monoene was determined by 1H NMR, as illustrated in Figure 21. The central olefinic protons of the diene appear near 5.8 ppm while the outer protons appear around 5.6 ppm. The olefinic protons of the monoene appear around 5.6 ppm. The ratio of monoene to diene is therefore given by; Monoene A55 - A5.3 Diene - A53 The selective hydrogenations of 1,3-cyclooctadiene in acetone at 27°C and 67 psi initial hydrogen pressure using thioether-palladium complexes _5_§_ and fig as catalysts are shown in Figure 19 and Figure 20 respectively. Table 21 shows that the ratio of products (selectivity) and initial turnover rates depend on the nature of the alkyl group present in the catalyst.

The effect of solvents on the hydrogenation of 1,3-cyclohexadiene at room temperature is given in Table 22. The catalyst and substrate are soluble in 0014. However, the solution is catalytically inactive since H2 is unable to add oxidatively to Pd. When the catalyst and substrate are dissolved in acetone, acetone replaces the thioether and coordinates to Pd, and thus induces hydrogenation. In a mixed solvent of actone and C014, the hydrogenation turnover rate decreases but the selectivity increases slightly, indicating that proper choice of solvent is essential in the selective hydrogenation process.
