N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Based Iridium and Ruthenium/Iridium Nanoparticles for the Hydrogen Isotope Exchange Reaction through C-H Bond Activations
ORGANOMETALLICS(2022)
摘要
Suppressing aromatic ring reduction in noble-metal catalyzed H/D exchange reactions remains a challenge. This drawback may be overcome by finding a synergetic effect in bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs). Herein, we report the synthesis of bimetallic lipo-and water-soluble Ru/Ir NPs. They were characterized by state-of-the-art techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution TEM, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared, powder X-ray diffraction, and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. These NPs were found to disperse in both organic and aqueous media because of the stabilization and coordination of adequate N heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands to the NP surface. They were tested in the deuteration of 2-phenylpyridine, 2-methyl-naphthylamine, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthtylamine, and L-lysine using D2 as the isotopic source. Bimetallic NPs showed an unusual selectivity toward the H/D exchange of 2-phenylpyridine, deuterating not only the expected C-H positions close to the N atom but also remote positions on the heterocycle. Additionally, reduction of the aromatic rings, which is a common undesired side reaction catalyzed by Ru NPs, was not observed. These outcomes, rationalized by a synergetic effect of both metals, are enhanced when NHC ligands are on the surface in comparison to model catalysts stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone. With regard to non-aromatic substrates, CH2-alpha and CH2-epsilon positions with respect to the amino acid group of L lysine were fully deuterated, while moderate deuteration of the gamma position was observed as the iridium content was increased in the bimetallic system.
