Resumo: | Throughout the last decades, researchers have been working on new methodologies to develop more sustainable processes to produce relevant chemical compounds. One of the main focuses of these research were on catalytic systems, that can be improved by: reducing the amount of catalyst used, a lesser quantity of solvent, decreasing the reaction's tempera-ture, and avoiding harsh conditions or toxic reagents. Therefore, in this work several copper(I) complexes were synthesized, and their cata-lytic activity was tested on two main reactions: (1) imine formation via direct aerobic oxidation of an alcohol and an amine and (2) coupling of an aldehyde, an amine and an alkyne for the synthesis of propargylamines, that are precursors for a wide variety of biologically active compounds, highly relevant in pharmaceutic and medicinal chemistry. Since the product of the first reaction, an imine, is the intermediate of the second one, a parallel between both re-actions can be established, allowing to compare a complex's catalytic activity in both reactions. Among the complexes synthesized, the highlight goes to heteroleptic copper(I) com-plexes, where the copper centre is coordinated by a bis(imino)acenaphthene (BIAN) ligand and a N-heterocyclic carbene, with or without the acenaphthene backbone. The NHCs have been employed as ligands with great success over the last years, due to their unique behaviour when bonding with transition metals, as well as BIANs, thanks to the properties that their structure grants them. The choice on copper relies on its low toxicity and cost, in addition to its chemical properties. All the compounds, complexes and their precursors synthesized in this work were char-acterized by 1H NMR. The ones that were not reported in literature were additionally charac-terized by 13C NMR, IR, EA and X-ray diffraction crystallography, when suitable single crys-tals were obtained. |

Um dos principais focos desta investigação foram os sistemas catalíticos, que podem ser melhorados através de: redução da quantidade de catalisador utilizado, menor quantidade de solvente, diminuição da temperatura da reação, e evitando condições adversas ou reagentes tóxicos. Assim, neste trabalho foram sintetizados vários complexos de cobre(I) e testada a sua atividade catalítica em duas reações principais: (1) formação de iminas a partir de um álcool e uma amina por reação de oxidação aeróbia direta e (2) acoplamento de um aldeído, uma amina e um alcino para a síntese de propargilaminas, que são precursores de uma grande variedade de compostos biologicamente ativos, de grande relevância na química farmacêutica e medicinal. Uma vez que o produto da primeira reação, uma imina, é o intermediário da segunda, é possível estabelecer um paralelo entre ambas as reações, permitindo comparar a atividade catalítica de um complexo em ambas as reações. Entre os complexos sintetizados, destacam-se os complexos de cobre(I) heterolépticos, onde o centro de cobre é coordenado por um ligando bis(imino)acenafteno (BIAN) e um car-beno N-heterocíclico, com ou sem acenafteno. Os NHCs têm sido utilizados como ligandos com grande sucesso nos últimos anos, devido ao seu comportamento único na ligação com metais de transição, bem como os BIANs, graças às propriedades que a sua estrutura lhes confere. A escolha do cobre deve-se à sua baixa toxicidade e custo, para além das suas propriedades químicas. Todos os compostos, complexos e seus precursores sintetizados neste trabalho foram caracterizados por 1H RMN. Os que não foram relatados na literatura foram adicionalmente caracterizados por 13C RMN, IV, AE e cristalografia de raios-X, quando cristais únicos adequados foram obtidos.Rosa, VitorGomes, ClaraRUNCosta, Diogo Manuel da Conceição2024-02-15T14:56:10Z2023-122023-12-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/163571enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:47:28Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/163571Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:59:28.300119Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
