Here we examine in detail two catalysts for their ability to selectively convert 1-alkenes to (E)-2-alkenes while limiting overisomerization to 3- or 4-alkenes. Catalysts1and3are composed of the cations CpRu(κ2-PN)(CH3CN)+and Cp*Ru(κ2-PN)+, respectively (where PN is a bifunctional phosphine ligand), and the anion PF6–. Kinetic modeling of the reactions of six substrates with1and3generated first- and second-order rate constantsk1andk2(andk3when applicable) that represent the rates of reaction for conversion of 1-alkene to (E)-2-alkene (k1), (E)-2-alkene to (E)-3-alkene (k2), and so on. Thek1:k2ratios were calculated to produce a measure of selectivity for each catalyst toward monoisomerization with each substrate. Thek1:k2values for1with the six substrates range from 32 to 132. Thek1:k2values for3are significantly more substrate-dependent, ranging from 192 to 62 000 for all of the substrates except 5-hexen-2-one, for which thek1:k2value was only 4.7. Comparison of the ratios for1and3for each substrate shows a 6–12-fold greater selectivity using3on the three linear substrates as well as a>230-foldincrease for 5-methylhex-1-ene and a 44-fold increase for a silyl-protected 4-penten-1-ol substrate, which are branched three and five atoms away from the alkene, respectively. The substrate 5-hexen-2-one is unique in that1was more selective than3; NMR analysis suggested that chelation of the carbonyl oxygen can facilitate overisomerization. This work highlights the need for catalyst developers to report results for catalyzed reactions at different time points and shows that one needs to consider not only the catalyst rate but also the duration over which a desired product (here the (E)-2-alkene) remains intact, where3is generally superior to1for the title reaction.
