Title: Reversible catalytic dehydrogenation of alcohols for energy storage

Abstract

Reversibility of a dehydrogenation/hydrogenation catalytic reaction has been an elusive target for homogeneous catalysis. In this paper, reversible acceptorless dehydrogenation of secondary alcohols and diols on iron pincer complexes and reversible oxidative dehydrogenation of primary alcohols/reduction of aldehydes with separate transfer of protons and electrons on iridium complexes are shown. Finally, this reactivity suggests a strategy for the development of reversible fuel cell electrocatalysts for partial oxidation (dehydrogenation) of hydroxyl-containing fuels.

Reactivity of Iridium Complexes of a Triphosphorus-Pincer Ligand Based on a Secondary Phosphine. Catalytic Alkane Dehydrogenation and the Origin of Extremely High Activity

Journal Article Gordon, Benjamin M. ; Lease, Nicholas ; Emge, Thomas J. ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

The selective functionalization of alkanes and alkyl groups is a major goal of chemical catalysis. Toward this end, a bulky triphosphine with a central secondary phosphino group, bis(2-di-t-butyl-phosphinophenyl)phosphine (^tBuP^HPP), has been synthesized. When complexed to iridium, it adopts a meridional (“pincer”) configuration. The secondary phosphino H atom can undergo migration to iridium to give an anionic phosphido-based–pincer (^tBuPPP) complex. Stoichiometric reactions of the (^tBuPPP)Ir complexes reflect a distribution of steric bulk around the iridium center in which the coordination site trans to the phosphido group is quite crowded; one coordination site cis to the phosphido is even more crowded; andmore »« less

Catalytic dehydrogenation of alcohol over solid-state molybdenum sulfide clusters with an octahedral metal framework

Journal Article Kamiguchi, Satoshi ; Organometallic Chemistry Laboratory, RIKEN, 2-1 Hirosawa, Wako City, Saitama 351-0198 ; Okumura, Kazu ; ... - Materials Research Bulletin

Graphical abstract: - Highlights: • Solid-state molybdenum sulfide clusters catalyzed the dehydrogenation of alcohol. • The dehydrogenation proceeded without the addition of any oxidants. • The catalytic activity developed when the cluster was activated at 300–500 °C in H{sub 2}. • The Lewis-acidic molybdenum atom and basic sulfur ligand were catalytically active. • The clusters function as bifunctional acid–base catalysts. - Abstract: Solid-state molybdenum sulfide clusters with an octahedral metal framework, the superconducting Chevrel phases, are applied to catalysis. A copper salt of a nonstoichiometric sulfur-deficient cluster, Cu{sub x}Mo{sub 6}S{sub 8–δ} (x = 2.94 and δ ≈ 0.3), is storedmore »« less

Catalytic dehydrogenation of cycloalkanes to arenes by a dihydrido iridium P-C-P pincer complex

Journal Article Gupta, M ; Hagen, C ; Cramer, R E ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

We recently found that the iridium P-C-P pincer complex IrH{sub 2}[C{sub 6}H{sub 3}-2,6-(CH{sub 2}-PBu{sup T}{sub 2}){sub 2}] (1) is a highly active, homogeneous catalyst for the transfer dehydrogenation of cyclooctane with unusual long-term stability at temperatures as high as 200 {degree}C. This reactivity has now been extended to the catalytic transfer dehydrogenation of cycloalkanes to arenes. We report this novel catalytic activity as well as the results of an X-ray structure determination of 1. 15 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.

Understanding the Reactivity and Decomposition of a Highly Active Iron Pincer Catalyst for Hydrogenation and Dehydrogenation Reactions

Journal Article Curley, Julia B. ; Smith, Nicholas E. ; Bernskoetter, Wesley H. ; ... - ACS Catalysis

The iron pincer complex (^iPrPNP)Fe(H)(CO) (1, ^iPrPNP^–= N(CH₂CH₂PiPr₂)₂^-) is an active (pre)catalyst for many hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions. This is in part because 1 can reversibly add H₂ across the iron-amide bond to form (^iPrPN^HP)Fe(H)₂(CO) (2, ^iPrPN^HP = HN(CH₂CH₂PⁱPr₂)₂). However, rapid decomposition limits the catalytic performance of 1 and related complexes. We explored the pathways through which catalytic intermediates related to 1 and 2 undergo decomposition. This involved characterizing the unstable and previously unobserved complexes [(^iPrPN^HP)Fe(H)(CO)(L)]⁺ (5-L; L = THF or N₂) and [(^iPrPN^HP)Fe(H)(H₂)(CO)]⁺ (8), which are proposed as intermediates when 1 and 2 are used as catalysts.

Catalytic Dehydrogenation of Alkanes by PCP–Pincer Iridium Complexes Using Proton and Electron Acceptors

Journal Article Shada, Arun Dixith Reddy ; Miller, Alexander M. ; Emge, Thomas J. ; ... - ACS Catalysis

Dehydrogenation to give olefins offers the most broadly applicable route to the chemical transformation of alkanes. Furthermore, transition-metal-based catalysts can selectively dehydrogenate alkanes using either olefinic sacrificial acceptors or a purge mechanism to remove H₂; both of these approaches have significant practical limitations. Here, we report the use of pincer-ligated iridium complexes to achieve alkane dehydrogenation by proton-coupled electron transfer, using pairs of oxidants and bases as proton and electron acceptors. Up to 97% yield was achieved with respect to oxidant and base, and up to 15 catalytic turnovers with respect to iridium, using t-butoxide as base coupled with variousmore »« less
