Toward a mechanistic understanding of oxidative homocoupling: the Glaser–Hay reaction

Abstract: The copper-catalyzed oxidative homocoupling of terminal alkynes has been studied with DFT methods. The role of Cu(I) or Cu(II) as the initial oxidation state as well as the effect of the changes in the substrate and the base have been examined. Oxidants responsible for outer-and inner-sphere electron transfer processes have also been investigated. The Cu/O 2 interactions, which arise when dioxygen is employed as the oxidant, have been studied explicitly to fully describe the 4-electron reduction process, provi… Show more

“…For copper-based MOFs ( Table 2, entry 4), the design of nascent MOFs is fairly derivativea nd is based on the proven efficiency of copperc omplexes such as Cu-TMEDA [205,206] or salts such as copper(II) acetate.

“…4 Despite extensive investigation, uncertainties remain concerning the mechanism of the homogeneous reaction, in particular in regard to the role of the role of gaseous oxygen. Recent theoretical studies indicate that both in the presence and in the absence of oxygen, the rate limiting step is de-protonation of the Cu-coordinated alkyne, 5 although direct experimental evidence is lacking. Reference 6 provides a comprehensive review of the history and applications of homogeneously catalyzed…”

“…Ötvös et al explained the enhanced activity obtained using the Cu(II)Fe(III)‐LDH catalyst by the cooperative interactions between of Cu(II) and Cu(I) ions, which mediated the oxidative homocouplings of acetylenes and arylamines . The authors speculated that the Cu embedded in the LDH structure had the ability to change oxidation states during reaction, allowing a Cu(I)–Cu(II) cooperative mechanism (see Figure ).…”
