摘要

This study extends our previous work of using π-FLP strategy to develop metal-free hydrogenation catalysts. Using small MeNCMe2 imine (im1) as a model, we previously designed cat1 and cat2 catalysts. But it is unclear whether they are capable of catalyzing the hydrogenations of bulky imines. Using tBuNC(H)Ph (im2) as a representative of large imines, we assessed the energetics of the cat1- and cat2-catalyzed im2 hydrogenations. The predicted energetics indicates that they can still catalyze large imine hydrogenations with experimentally accessible kinetic barriers, although the energetics becomes less favorable. To improve the catalysis, we proposed new catalysts (cat3 and cat4) by tailoring cat1 and cat2. The study indicates that cat3 and cat4 could have better performance for the hydrogenation of the bulky im2 than cat1 and cat2. Remarkably, cat3 and cat4 are also found suitable for small imine (im1) hydrogenation. Examining the hydrogen transfer substeps in the eight hydrogenations involved in this study, we observed that the mechanism for the hydrogen transfer step in the catalytic cycles depends on the steric effect between catalyst and substrate. The mechanism can be switched from stepwise one in the case of large steric effect (e.g.im2/cat2) to the concerted one in the case of small steric effect (e.g.im1/cat3). The new catalysts could be better targets for experimental realization because of their simpler constructions.
