Intercepting low oxidation state main group hydrides with a nucleophilic N-heterocyclic olefin.

چکیده
The N-heterocyclic olefin, IPr=CH(2) (IPr = [(HCNDipp)(2)C], Dipp = 2,6-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3)) has been demonstrated to be of sufficient Lewis basicity to stabilize main group hydrides in unusually low oxidation states.

Ruthenium-based complexes containing a benzimidazolium tag covalently connected to N-heterocyclic carbene ligands: environmentally friendly catalysts for olefin metathesis transformations.
Two ruthenium-based pre-catalysts containing an ionic tag covalently connected to a N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand are reported. These novel complexes, bearing a polar benzimidazolium group, are air-stable and can be easily prepared from commercially available reagents. The quaternary benzimidazolium tag allows the efficient separation of ruthenium waste from the metathesis product after r...

The state-of-the-art in olefin metathesis is application of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-containing ruthenium alkylidenes for the formation of internal C=C bonds and of cyclic alkyl amino carbene (CAAC)-containing ruthenium benzylidenes in the production of terminal olefins. A straightforward synthesis of bis(CAAC)Ru indenylidene complexes, which are highly effective in the formation of both te...

Substitution effects are probed for novel N-heterocyclic stannylenes (NHSns), including 1,4-di(R)-tetrazole-5-stannylenes (1R), and 1,3-di(R)-tetrazole-5-stannylenes (2R), using B3LYP/6-311++G** level of theory. Nucleophilicity, multiplicity, and stability of 1R and 2R are calculated; with R = H, methyl, ethyl, i-propyl, t-butyl, Ph, OH, methoxy, NO2, CN and CF3. Asymmetric 2H appears more nucl...
متن کاملA chameleon catalyst for nonheme iron-promoted olefin oxidation.
We report the chameleonic reactivity of two nonheme iron catalysts for olefin oxidation with H2O2 that switch from nearly exclusive cis-dihydroxylation of electron-poor olefins to the exclusive epoxidation of electron-rich olefins upon addition of acetic acid. This switching suggests a common precursor to the nucleophilic oxidant proposed to Fe(III)-η(2)-OOH and electrophilic oxidant proposed t...
متن کاملRuthenium olefin metathesis catalysts featuring unsymmetrical N-heterocyclic carbenes.
New ruthenium Grubbs' and Hoveyda-Grubbs' second generation catalysts bearing N-alkyl/N-isopropylphenyl N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands with syn or anti backbone configuration were obtained and compared in model olefin metathesis reactions. Different catalytic efficiencies were observed depending on the size of the N-alkyl group (methyl or cyclohexyl) and on the backbone configuration. The...
