Brief Introduction
Dehydrogenation: basic oxidation reaction in organic chemistry
Oxidant or sacrificial hydrogen
acceptor was used to absorb the
H.
In acceptorless dehydrogenation, H was released as hydrogen or was in situ
consumption and no net hydrogen gas is liberated

The Thermodynamic Reason for the Problems
of the Dehydrogenation reaction
The ΔH of some chemical bonds:
Chemical bonds
ΔH/(kJ/mol)
C-C
342
C=C
613
C-H
416
H-H
435.9
Let’s start from the reaction :
ΔH = (εC-C+6εC-H)-(εC=C+4εC-H+εH-H)
= (342+6*416)-(613+4*416+435.9)
= +125.1 kJ/mol
ΔG of a spontaneous reaction must be minus, that is:
ΔG = ΔH-TΔS < 0
Problems:
Slow rates, harsh conditions,
low number of turnovers, and
catalyst instability.
ΔS > 0, and ΔH >> 0, so T have to >> 0 to make ΔG < 0. That is the same to say:
A strong heat was need to make the reaction proceed.
Proposed Mechanism of Transfer Dehydrogenation
(TD) or Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD)
No structural changes of ligands in the reaction

Conclusions
Advantages
 Efficiency of the Metal-ligand Cooperation catalysts are quite high. Catalysts load
can be as high as 0.1%.
 Scope of the substrates are quite large. Aryl, alkyl, alkeyl(some examples) are both
appropriate substituent groups of the substrates.
 Detailed studied about the operation pattern of catalysts will be a new orientation
in modern chemistry.
Limits
 The majority of the reactions are activation of X-H(O-H or N-H), and formation of
C-X bonds. Few applications in alkane metathesis failed to make good yield and
selectivity.
 Achiral pincer-ligands occupying more orbitals makes it hard to control the
stereoselectivity in C-C bond formation.
