چکیده

We report experimental and computational evidence that cationic N-heterocyclic carbene gold complexes with electron-rich cyclopropanes rearrange to produce Fischer gold carbene complexes in the gas phase, in analogy to long-known condensed-phase rearrangements of protonated cyclopropanes. Our results help to generalize the relationship between Lewis-acidic metal complexes of cyclopropanes, metallacyclobutanes and metal carbenes.

2-Pyridylnitrene and 3-pyridazylcarbene and their relationship via ring-expansion, ring-opening, ring-contraction, and fragmentation.

Photolysis of triazolo[1,5-b]pyridazine 8 isolated in Ar matrix generates diazomethylpyridazines 9Z and 9E and diazopentenynes 11Z and 11E as detected by IR spectroscopy. ESR spectroscopy detected the 3-pydidazylcarbene 10 as well as pent-2-en-3-yn-1-ylidene 12 formed by loss of one and two molecules of N(2), respectively. Further photolysis caused rearrangement of the carbenes to 1,2-pentadien...

Synthesis of diverse indole-containing scaffolds by gold(I)-catalyzed tandem reactions of 3-propargylindoles initiated by 1,2-indole migrations: scope and computational studies.

Similar to propargylic carboxylates and sulphides, 3-propargylindoles undergo 1,2-indole migrations under cationic gold(I) catalysis. The intermediate Au-carbenoid complex may evolve through different pathways depending on the substituents at the propargylic and terminal positions of the alkyne moiety. Thus, 3-indenylindole derivatives were easily obtained through formal iso-Nazarov or Nazarov ...

B-podands as efficient catalysts for the ring opening of epoxides in water: A versatile and atom economical method for the synthesis of vicinal azidoalcohols

For the first time B-podands have been studied as an efficient and powerful catalysts in the ring opening of epoxides with azide anion in water. The reaction afforded the corresponding 1,2-azidoalcohols with high regioselectivity under mild reaction conditions and in a highly atom economic fashion.
