Is the Hadith that states, "O Ali, do not sleep until you have done five things: recited the entire Holy Quran, given 4,000 dirhams in charity, reserved your place in Paradise, appeased your adversaries... to the end of the Hadith," authentic?

This hadith is false and fabricated, with no basis whatsoever. Rather, it is among the fabrications invented by some Shiites, as highlighted by the Imams of Hadith. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen mentioned that this hadith is a lie fabricated against the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and it is not permissible to attribute it to him, unless one mentions it to clarify that it is fabricated and to warn people against it.
