Synthesis of novel ferrocenylphosphine-amidine ligands with central and planar chirality and their diastereomeric effect in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation

Some novel ferrocenylphosphine-amidine ligands with central and planar chirality were prepared from (R,S-p)-PPFNH2-R 3 and its diastereomer (S,S-p)-PPFNH2 3a. The efficiency and diastereomeric impact of these ferrocenylphosphine-amidine ligands in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution was examined, and up to 96% e.e. with 98% yield was achieved by the use of ligand (R,S-p)-4a with a methyl group in the amidino moiety. The results also indicated that (R)-central chirality and (S-p)-planar chirality in these ferrocenylphosphine-amidine ligands were matched for the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation.

固相反应法制备的Pd/C催化剂对甲酸氧化的电催化活性

催化剂中Pd粒子的粒径和相对结晶度对甲酸氧化峰峰电位基本没有影响.但在Pd/C-1和Pd/C-2催化剂电极上主要氧化峰峰电流分别为17·1和6·1mA/cm2,表明Pd/C-1催化剂对甲酸氧化的电催化活性要高于Pd/C-2催化剂,这是由于Pd/C-1催化剂中Pd粒子的平均粒径和相对结晶度比Pd/C-2催化剂的小而引起的.图3为Pd/C-1和Pd/C-2催化剂电极在0·5mol/LH2SO4+0·5mol/L HCOOH溶液中,电位恒定在0·1V时的计时电流曲线.由图可见,在Pd/C-1催化剂电极上(图3,曲线a),当电位恒定在0·1V下扫描1000s时,电流密度为2·35mA/c

Synthesis of isomeric bis(amine anhydride)s for novel poly(amine imide)s by Pd-catalyzed amination of 4-chlorophthalic anhydride

Two novel bis(amine anhydride) monomers, N,N'-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)-1,4-phenylenediamine dianhydride I and N,/N'-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)-1,3-phenylenediamine dianhydride 11, were prepared via palladium-catalyzed amination reaction of 4-chloro-N-methylphthaliniide with 1,4-phenylenediamine or 1,3-phenylenediamine, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the intermediate bis(amine imide)s and subsequent dehydration of the resulting tetraacids. A series of new poly(amine imide)s were prepared from the synthesized dianhydride monomers with various diamines in NMP via conventional two-step method.

Carbon-supported Pd nanocatalyst modified by non-metal phosphorus for the oxygen reduction reaction

A carbon-supported palladium catalyst modified by non-metal phosphorus(PdP/C) has been developed as an oxygen reduction catalyst for direct methanol fuel cells.The PdP/C catalyst was prepared by the sodium hypophosphite reduction method. The as-prepared Pd nanoparticles have a narrow size distribution with an average diameter of 2 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that P enters into the crystal lattice of Pd and forms an alloy.

Preparation of Pd/C catalyst for formic acid oxidation using a novel colloid method

A novel colloid method using (WO3)(n)center dot xH(2)O as colloidal source was developed to prepare Pd/C catalyst for formic acid oxidation. Transmission electron microscopy image shows that the Pd/C nanoparticles have an average size of 3.3 nm and a narrow size distribution. Electrochemical measurements indicate that the Pd/C catalyst exhibits significantly high electrochemical active surface area and high catalytic activity with good stability for formic acid oxidation compared with that prepared by common method.
