Selective iron-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of terminal alkynes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel iron-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of alkynes to the corresponding alkenes applying formic acid as a hydrogen donor is reported. An in situ combination of Fe(BF(4))(2)·6H(2)O and tetraphos allows for highly selective hydrogenation of a broad range of aromatic and aliphatic alkynes tolerating different functional groups.

trans‐Hydrogenation: Application to a Concise and Scalable Synthesis of Brefeldin A†
The important biochemical probe molecule brefeldin A (1) has served as an inspirational target in the past, but none of the many routes has actually delivered more than just a few milligrams of product, where documented. The approach described herein is clearly more efficient; it hinges upon the first implementation of ruthenium-catalyzed trans-hydrogenation in natural products total synthesis....
متن کاملRegio- and Enantioselective Cobalt-Catalyzed Sequential Hydrosilylation/Hydrogenation of Terminal Alkynes.
A highly regio- and enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed sequential hydrosilylation/hydrogenation of alkynes was developed to afford chiral silanes. This one-pot method is operationally simple and atom economic. It makes use of relatively simple and readily available starting materials, namely alkynes, silanes, and hydrogen gas, to construct more valuable chiral silanes. Primary mechanistic studie...
متن کاملStereoselective iron-catalyzed alkyne hydrogenation in ionic liquids.
Iron(0) nanoparticles in ionic liquids (ILs) have been shown to catalyse the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. In the presence of a nitrile-functionalised IL or acetonitrile, stereoselective formation of (Z)-alkenes was observed. The biphasic solvent system allowed facile separation and re-use of the catalyst.
متن کاملHeterolytic H2 Cleavage and Catalytic Hydrogenation by an Iron Metallaboratrane.
Reversible, heterolytic addition of H2 across an iron-boron bond in a ferraboratrane with formal hydride transfer to the boron gives iron-borohydrido-hydride complexes. These compounds catalyze the hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes to the respective alkanes. Notably, the boron is capable of acting as a shuttle for hydride transfer to substrates. The results are interesting in the context of ...
متن کاملCobalt-catalyzed ammonia borane dehydrocoupling and transfer hydrogenation under aerobic conditions.
Two cobalt compounds, Cp*Co(CO)I2 (1) and CpCo(CO)I2 (2) (Cp* = η(5)-C5Me5, Cp = η(5)-C5H5), catalyze the dehydrogenation of ammonia borane under either anaerobic or aerobic conditions and are also effective hydrogenation catalysts for alkenes and alkynes using ammonia borane as a hydrogen source, also in the presence of air.
