  3. Overview on Olefin Metathesis This reaction can be thought of as a reaction where all the C=C bonds are cleaved and then rearranged in a statistical fashion.

  4. History R.H. Grubbs, Nobel Lecture, 2005. M. A. Rouhi, C&EN. 2002, 80(51), 34. • 1956 H.S. Eleuterio – DuPont: Ring Opening Reaction observed • 1964 Banks and Bailey – Phillips Petroleum • 1967 Chalderon coined the term “olefin metathesis” • One carbon of a double bond and all its substituents exchanges places with a carbon of another double bond with all of its substituents

  5. Mechanism – Initial Work Y. Chauvin, Nobel Lecture, 2005 J. Am. Chem. Soc.,90, 4133 (1968) • Calderon’s Pairwise (conventional) Mechanism • Chauvin’s Metallacyclobutane • Suggested the metal-carbeneintermediate exists

  6. Mechanism – Initial Work Predicted Ratio Observed The experiment supports Chauvin’s Mechanism • Grubbs – Deuterium Labeling • Examined ring closing metathesis (RCM)

  7. Mechanism – Chauvin’s product  2 reactant  1 Intermediate Metallocycle product  1 reactant  2 Y. Chauvin, Nobel Lecture, 2005 Direct [2+2] cycloaddition of two alkenes is symmetric forbidden. 1970’s Chauvin proposed the widely accepted Mechanism

  8. Mechanism – Chauvin’s Makromol. Chem., 141, 161 (1971)

  9. Ideal Catalyst C.W. Bielawski, R.H. Grubbs Prog. Polym. Sci. 32 (2007) 1. Produces an infinite amount of product from a single catalyst molecule 100% conversion rate Show high stability to moisture, air, temperature etc. 0 by-products Soluble in organic media Cheap for industrial use

  10. Catalyst J. Am. Chem. Soc.,97, 1592 (1975) 1976 – Katz “First” well-defined catalyst Katz suggested that the presence of a carbene on the catalyst would facilitate reactivity

  11. Catalyst • 1986 – Grubbs group using Tebbe Reagent • The core metal is Titanium • Isolable metallocyclobutane • catalyzes ROMP of norbornene with good MW control, PDI ~ 1.2 • reactive with heteroatoms L. R. Gilliom and R. H. Grubbs, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 733.

  12. Catalyst R. R. Shrock and Amir H. Hoveyda, ACIE, 2003, 42-38, 4592 • Tungsten Based Catalyst • 1988, Schrock’s Imido-alkoxy • Alkoxides varied to modulate activity • Limited functional group tolerance • 1995, Basset’s Catalyst • Bulky alkoxide ligands show stereoselectivity • Better function group tolerance (acetates, nitriles, anhydrides) • High activity

  13. Commercialized Catalysts R.R. Schrock, Nobel Lecture, 2005 • 1990 - Schrock’s Catalyst • Molybdenum alkylidenes • Highly active • Good functional group tolerance • Strict inert conditions, no water • Sterochemical control through chiralalkoxyligands

  14. Commercialized Catalysts R.R. Schrock, Nobel Lecture, 2005 • 1992 – 2002 Grubb’s Catalysts • Highly stable • Minimal side reactions • Electron donating lingands • Readily initiated benzylidyne moiety • Increased functional group tolerance (Schrock tolerance + water alcohols, acids)

  15. Catalyst Summary Grubb’s 1stGeneration Grubb’s 2ndGeneration Schrock’s Catalyst • Highly reactive • Very stable • Very tolerant • Less expensive • Most reactive • Least stable • Least tolerant • Most expensive • Lest reactive • Moderately stable • Very tolerant • Least expensive

  16. Olefin Metathesis Applications R.R. Schrock, Nobel Lecture, 2005 • Wide range of applications • From baseball bat to pharmaceutical agents • Example 1: • Drugs of treating hepatitis C • Example 2: • Polymerization of DCPD
