Activation of polar organometallic reagents with alkali-metal alkoxides

چکیده
The use of group 1 metal alkoxides as additives to activate s-block organometallics is an established phenomenon in polar organometallic chemistry. Typified by the Lochmann–Schlosser superbase, these reagents have proved be exceptionally powerful bases for deprotonative metallation organic substrates. However, despite their long-standing importance synthesis, nature this activating effect remains fully understood. Here we shed light on origins special reactivities which are capable, generally cannot replicated homometallic precursors. In addition, reactivity studies that mixed-metal constitutions discussed. Opening up new directions lithium promote direct regioselective magnesium (or zinc)/halogen exchange processes access highly functionalized also discussed, with emphasis rationalizing role each transformations. By showcasing using alkali-metal reagents, Perspective outlines applications combinations arene functionalization via metal/halogen and metallation. Our mechanistic understanding how systems operate has revealed complex diverse mixed-metal/mixed-aggregate composition.

متن کاملUniversalities in ultracold reactions of alkali-metal polar molecules
We consider ultracold collisions of ground-state heteronuclear alkali-metal dimers that are susceptible to four-center chemical reactions 2AB → A2 + B2 even at submicrokelvin temperatures. These reactions depend strongly on species, temperature, electric field, and confinement in an optical lattice. We calculate ab initio van der Waals coefficients for these interactions and use a quantum forma...
متن کاملIntroducing deep eutectic solvents to polar organometallic chemistry: chemoselective addition of organolithium and Grignard reagents to ketones in air.
Despite their enormous synthetic relevance, the use of polar organolithium and Grignard reagents is greatly limited by their requirements of low temperatures in order to control their reactivity as well as the need of dry organic solvents and inert atmosphere protocols to avoid their fast decomposition. Breaking new ground on the applications of these commodity organometallics in synthesis unde...

متن کاملCatalytic asymmetric alkylation of ketones using organometallic reagents.
The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of tertiary alcohols by the addition of organometallic reagents to ketones is of central importance in organic chemistry. The resulting quaternary stereocentres are difficult to prepare selectively by other means despite their widespread occurrence in natural products and pharmaceuticals. Over the past few years, several seminal reports on the formation of chi...
