0 Introduction

In the last few decades,transition metal complexes have been highlighted by many researchers,owing to their outstanding abilities in gas storage,molecular recognition,structure analysis and catalysis[1-3].The combination of transition metal ions and organic ligands in many systems has not only led to more complicated and fascinating structural topologies,but also exerted synergetic effects and merged the merits of both aspects,which reveal potential applications in heterogeneous catalysis,selective absorption,and photonic,electronic,and magnetic functional materials[4-6].Among lots of organic ligands,pyrazole carboxylates play a key role in generating the excellent architectures because they not only possess potential coordination nodes and the strong coordination ability,but also can be acted as the multiple proton donors,acceptors and build high-dimensional supramolecular frameworks.However,to our best knowledge,transition metalcoordination complexes derived from pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid are very little[7-8],and the studies of catalytic properties of the transition metal coordination complexes are rather rare.

Herein,copper髤 and manganese髤 complexes 1 and 2 formed by pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid,namely,[Cu2(pca)2(H2O)6]·2H2O(1)and[Mn(Hpca)2(phen)]·3H2O(2),have been synthesized and structurally characterized.Additionally,two complexes were further investigated as heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides at CO2atmospheric pressure.

1 Experimental

1.1 General methods and materials

The single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals the asymmetric unit of complex 1 consists of one crystallographic independent Cu2+cation,one pca2-anion,three coordination water molecules and one free water molecule(Fig.1a).The Cu2+cation,which coordinated by oxygen atom (O1),nitrogen atom (N1)from pca2-anion,nitrogen atom (N2a)from the other pca2-anion and three oxygen atoms(O3,O4,O5)from three coordination watermolecules,displaying a distorted{CuO4N2}octahedral coordination geometry.The distances of the Cu-O and Cu-N are 0.206 6(6)～0.214 5(7)nm and 0.202 9(8)～0.204 2(8)nm,respectively,which are similar with those of reported complexes[11-12].The bond angles around Cu2+cation are in the range of 79.3(3)°～176.6(3)°.The six-membered ring of complex 1,which is formed by four pyrazole nitrogen atoms of two pca2-ligand and two Cu2+cations,is similar with that of the complex[Cu(NAA)2(bim)2]·H2O(HNAA=anaphthylacetic acid,bim=benzimidazole)[13].However,the distance of Cu…Cu (0.400 76 nm)in 1 is longer than that of the reported copper complex[14].The oxygen atoms(O3,O4,O5)link the carboxylic oxygen atoms(O1,O2)to form the 2D supramolecular layer through O-H…O hydrogen bonding interactions(O3…O2 0.267 0(3)nm,O4…O2 0.276 9(4)nm,O5…O1 0.276 5(1)nm)(Fig.1b,Table 3).The free water molecules further connect the neighboring 2D supramolecular layers to generate 3D supramolecular framework via the hydrogen bonding interactions(Fig.1c)(O4…O6 0.275 3(6)nm,O5…O6 0.278 8(3)nm,O6…O2 0.285 9(7)nm,O6…O3 0.288 7(1)nm)(Table 3).

Single-crystalX-ray diffraction exhibits that complex 2 crystallizesin the monoclinic crystal system with P21/c space group.The crystal structure of 2 is composed of one Mn2+cation,one phen ligand,two Hpca-anions and three lattice water molecules(Fig.2a).The Mn2+center shows a distorted{MnO2N4}octahedral coordination geometry and coordinated with two nitrogen atoms(N1,N3)from two separate Hpcaanions,two chelate nitrogen atoms(N5,N6)from phen ligand and two carboxylic oxygen atoms(O1,O3).The bond distances of the Mn-O and Mn-N are 0.215 4(2)～0.217 3(2)nm and 0.223 2(3)～0.229 5(3)nm,respectively.The bond angles around Mn2+cation are in the range of 73.20(10)°～167.53(10)°.The Mn2+cation is coordinated with Hpca-anion and phen ligand to form three five-membered rings.Interestingly,the hexanuclear chair-like water clusters are formed by the intermolecular hydrogen bonding interaction of free water molecules in the complex 2(O6…O7 0.275 2(4)nm,O7…O5 0.288 0(2)nm,O7…O5 0.272 4(5)nm).Furthermore,a 3D supramolecular framework is formed by the oxygen atoms (O5,O6)of the hexanuclear water clusters and the carboxylic oxygen atoms(O1,O2,O4)and the pyrazole nitrogen atoms(N2)of the adjacent molecule(O5…O4 0.275 9(0)nm,O5…O1 0.273 8(9)nm,O6…O2 0.269 7(2)nm,N2…O6 0.265 4(9)nm)(Fig.2b,Table 3).

2.2 Catalytic conversion CO2to cyclic carbonate catalyzed by complexes 1 and 2

Carbon dioxide is not only the main greenhouse gas,but also is an attractive C1 building block in organic synthesis as it is highly functional,abundant,inexpensive,nontoxic,and nonflammable.Chemical fixation of CO2to obtain the valuable chemical materials is of both scientific and practical significance[15].One of the most promising pathways is the synthesis of cyclic carbonate from CO2and epoxide.Thusobtained five-membered cyclic carbonates can serve as valuable monomers for polycarbonates and electrolytes in secondary batteries and chemical sources[16-17].Our cycloaddition studies focused on the case of cycloaddition of CO2,with the aim to understand the catalytic property of pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid complexes for developing a new cycloaddition system in organic chemistry.The reactions were performed in a 10 mL flask in the presence of Bu4NBr.To optimize the product conversion and selectivity,the cycloaddition of CO2to styrene oxide to styrene carbonate was selected as a model reaction to evaluate the catalytic activities of the different catalysts in the presence of Bu4NBr(Scheme 1).The influences of different reaction conditions about the cycloaddition of CO2to styrene carbonate have been investigated.The conversion and selectivity of each reaction are summarized and illustrated in Fig.3.After the preliminary optimization,the best conversion of styrene oxide(95.1%)was obtained during the cycloaddition of CO2to styrene carbonate(10 mmol),with catalyst 1(10%)and 4%Bu4NBr at 333 K for 24 h.

Scheme 1 Conversion of styrene oxide to styrene carbonate

Fig.3 Conversion and selectivity of styrene oxide to styrene carbonate with different reaction conditions

Furthermore,control catalytic experiments of the cycloaddition of styrene oxide were performed under the same reaction conditions.No styrene carbonate was detected in the absence of Bu4NBr (Fig.3a,3b);The conversion was 16.7%in the absence of the catalyst,when the Bu4NBr was used as catalyst(Fig.3c),which is consistent with the previous reports[18].However,using the complex 1,the reaction can be finished in 24 h and the conversion reaches 95.1%,which overmatch the Cu(OAc)2and complex 2.Based on the above-mentioned facts,we conclude that the introduce of pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid ligand into the framework bring new coordination environment for the copper ions,which can enhance its catalytic capacity for the reaction material when combined with Bu4NBr.And indeed,catalytic activities of the complex 1 outperforms many effective catalysts,i.e.ionic liquid/Zn-PPh3catalysts[19],[Dmim]2ZnBr2Cl2[20]and pyridinium-based ionic liquids catalyst[21].

As a green catalyst,complex 1 was further used to explore the influence of catalyst recycles on the catalytic properties of cycloaddition of styrene oxide in a heterogeneous system.In the recycle experiments,the catalyst can easily be separated by filtration or centrifugation and washed using CH2Cl2.The IR spectra of the recovered complex 1 were identical to those of the freshly prepared complex 1 (Fig.4).The experiment results displayed that no obvious loss of activity was observed after three runs (Conv.95.1%for 1st,94.8%for 2nd,94.5%for 3rd)as shown in Fig.5.

Fig.4 FT-IR spectra of complex 1 after three runs of catalytic cycles

Fig.5 Recycle experiments of complex 1 on conversion of styrene oxide to styrene carbonate

Following the success of styrene epoxidecycloaddition and evaluating the scope and limitations of the current procedure,cycloaddition reactions with an array of epoxy compounds were examined using complex 1.A series of epoxide substrates were examined for the synthesis of corresponding cyclic carbonates(Table 4).Cyclic carbonates with alkyl side chain groups,aryl side chain groups were successfully synthesized from corresponding epoxidesin high conversion(up to 97.4%)and selectivity(up to 98.9%).The di-substituted epoxide,gave lower activity toward the production of the corresponding cyclic carbonates,which is presumably due to the effect of the high steric hindrance.These preliminary results exhibit that complex 1 and Bu4NBr can facilitate the cycloaddition of epoxides and serve as highly efficient and selective catalysts at CO2atmospheric pressure(101.5 kPa).
