Reductive elimination of ethane from trimethyl(triphenylphosphine) gold(III) induced by dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate.

Reductive elimination of ethane from five-coordinate platinum(IV) alkyl complexes.

Five-coordinate platinum(IV) alkyl complexes bearing sterically non-demanding pyridylpyrrolide ligands, (LX)PtMe(3) [LX = 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrrolide (3a) and 3,5-diphenyl-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrrolide (3b)] have been prepared. An X-ray structure of 3a establishes that it is a five-coordinate Pt(IV) complex with a square-pyramidal geometry. Thermolysis of 3a or 3b in C(6)D(6) with ethylen...

Regiospecific reductive elimination from diaryliodonium salts.

StereoElectronic Control of Unidirectional Reductive Elimination (SECURE) is provided by the cyclophane substituent on iodine(III). Computational and experimental studies demonstrate that out of plane steric bulk strongly destabilizes the reductive elimination transition state, and leads to regiochemical control. This approach should be general for high valent main group and transition metal ions.

Photochemical Reductive Elimination of TetrachloroiodateQII)

In analogy to transition metal complexes, coordination compounds of the main group metals can be also classified according to the electron configuration at the metal. Generally, the main group metals occur in oxidation states with so, s2, s2p2 and s2p4 ground states. Recently, we studied the photolysis of so and s2 systems [l-4]. We now report the first results on the photochemistry of an s2p2 ...

Trans influence on the rate of reductive elimination. Reductive elimination of amines from isomeric arylpalladium amides with unsymmetrical coordination spheres.

To determine the trans effect on the rates of reductive eliminations from arylpalladium(II) amido complexes, the reactions of arylpalladium amido complexes bearing symmetrical and unsymmetrical DPPF (DPPF = bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) derivatives were studied. THF solutions of LPd(Ar)(NMeAr') (L = DPPF, DPPF-OMe, DPPF-CF3, DPPF-OMe,Ph, DPPF-Ph,CF3, and DPPF-OMe,CF3; Ar = C6H4-4-CF3; Ar' = ...
