چکیده

Nickel phosphine complexes with pendant amines have been found to be electrocatalysts for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols, with turnover frequencies as high as 3.3 s(-1). These complexes are the first electrocatalysts for alcohol oxidation based on non-precious metals, which will be critical for use in fuel cells.

Two pathways for electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrogen by a nickel bis(diphosphine) complex with pendant amines in the second coordination sphere.

A nickel bis(diphosphine) complex containing pendant amines in the second coordination sphere, [Ni(P(Cy)2N(t-Bu)2)2](BF4)2 (P(Cy)2N(t-Bu)2 = 1,5-di(tert-butyl)-3,7-dicyclohexyl-1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctane), is an electrocatalyst for hydrogen oxidation. The addition of hydrogen to the Ni(II) complex gives three isomers of the doubly protonated Ni(0) complex [Ni(P(Cy)2N(t-Bu)2H)2](BF4)2. U...

Cp*Ir(NHC) complexes as highly versatile and efficient catalysts for the cross-coupling of alcohols and amines

A comparative study on the catalytic activity of a series of Cp*Ir(NHC)Cl2 complexes in several C-O and C-N coupling processes implying hydrogen-borrowing mechanisms has been performed. The compound Cp*Ir(I)Cl2 (I = 1,3-di-n-butylimidazolylidene) showed to be highly effective in the cross coupling reactions of amines and alcohols, providing high yields in the production of unsymmetrical ethers ...
