Prof. Michael Buchmeiser “Tailoring Catalytic Selectivity By Confinement”
October 23 @ 4:30 am - 4:30 pm

Abstract:
Reactions under steric confinement by well-defined organometallic catalysts selectively immobilized inside tailored mesoporous materials mimic enzymes and benefit from the proximity of the catalyst to a pore wall with defined geometry and polarity. This allows governing the transition states of catalytic reactions, thereby offering access to tailored stereo- and chemoselectivity. This concept was successfully applied to the size-specific macrocyclization of a, w-dienes by tethered and surface-bound neutral Ru- and cationic Mo- and W-imido alkylidene N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes, in Z-selective ring-opening cross-metathesis reactions, in Z-selective hydrosilylation and hydroboration reactions of alkynes by Rh-NHC complexes, in the alkene-selective oligomerization of ethylene with Cr(II) and Cr(III) complexes as well as in the stereospecific ring-expansion metathesis polymerization (REMP) with cationic molybdenum alkylidyne NHC complexes to yield low-molecular weight cyclic polymers. Complementary, the concept of liquid confinement in biphasic supported ionic liquid-liquid phase (SILLP) catalysis, in which confinement is created by a liquid-liquid interface, and their use in Z-selective olefin metathesis and alkyne hydrosilylation reactions will be outlined
