چکیده

The N-methylation of amines using CO2 and PhSiH3 as source of CH3 was efficiently performed using a N-heterocyclic carbene copper(i) complex. The methodology was found compatible with aromatic and aliphatic primary and secondary amines. Synthetic and computational studies have been carried out to support the proposed reaction mechanism for this transformation.

Direct NHC-catalysed redox amidation using CO2 for traceless masking of amine nucleophiles.

The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalysed redox amidation reaction is poorly developed and usually requires catalytic co-additives for electron-rich amine nucleophiles. We report a masking strategy (using CO2) that couples release of the free amine nucleophile to catalytic turnover, and in doing so, enables direct catalytic redox amidation of electron-rich amines.

(N-Heterocyclic-Carbene)Copper(I)-Catalyzed Carbon-Carbon Bond Formation Using Carbon Dioxide

Alkynes and olefins insert into [(IPr)CuH] 2 (IPr = N,N-bis-(2,6diisopropylphenyl)-1,3-imidazol-2-ylidene) to give copper vinyl and copper alkyl complexes. These copper complexes insert CO2 into the Cu-C bond to form copper acrylate and copper carboxylate complexes. Acrylic and carboxylic acids can be isolated

Metal and carbene organocatalytic relay activation of alkynes for stereoselective reactions.

Transition metal and organic catalysts have established their own domains of excellence. It has been expected that merging the two unique domains should provide complimentary or unprecedented opportunities in converting simple raw materials to functional products. N-heterocyclic carbenes alone are excellent organocatalysts. When used with transition metals such as copper, N-heterocyclic carbene...

Access to functionalised silver(I) and gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbenes by [2 + 3] dipolar cycloadditions.

A new strategy was developed for the modification of silver(I) and gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbenes. Azido groups were grafted and used either by copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition before metallation or by thermal and "strain-promoted" 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition after metallation to functionalise the metal-NHCs.

Thiazolium carbene catalysts for the fixation of CO2 onto amines.

The catalytic N-formylation and N-methylation of amines using CO2 as the carbon source represents a facile and sustainable approach for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and natural products. Herein, we describe highly effective and inexpensive thiazolium carbene-based catalysts derived from vitamin B1 for the N-formylation and N-methylation of amines, using polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) as a r...
