چکیده

An efficient Rh(I)-NHC-pincer catalyst for the highly regioselective Meinwald rearrangement of monoalkylated epoxides into methylketones under mild conditions is presented. The nucleophilic epoxide opening is assisted by Lewis acids.

gem-Selective Cross-Dimerization and Trimerization of Alkynes with Silylacetylenes Promoted by a Rhodium-Pyridine-N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyst

gem-Selective cross-dimerization and trimerization of silylacetylenes with alkynes via C-H activation using a rhodium(I)-pyridine-Nheterocyclic carbene catalyst have been developed. This protocol is applicable to variety of aliphatic or aromatic terminal alkynes, internal alkynes and gem-1,3-disubsituted enynes to afford the corresponding enynes and dienynes with high regioand stereoselectiviti...

Well-defined coinage metal transfer agents for the synthesis of NHC-based nickel, rhodium and palladium macrocycles†

With a view to use as carbene transfer agents, well-defined silver(I) and copper(I) complexes of a macrocyclic NHC-based pincer ligand, bearing a central lutidine donor and a dodecamethylene spacer [CNC– (CH2)12, 1], have been prepared. Although the silver adduct is characterised by X-ray diffraction as a dinuclear species anti-[Ag(μ-1)]2, variable temperature measurements indicate dynamic stru...

A DFT study on the NHC catalysed Michael addition of enols to α,β-unsaturated acyl-azoliums. A base catalysed C-C bond-formation step.

The NHC catalysed nucleophilic additions of enols to α,β-unsaturated acyl-azolium intermediates have been investigated using DFT methods at the MPWB1K/6-31G** computational level. In the direct and the conjugate additions, formation of a hydrogen bond (HB) with the carboxyl oxygen is not sufficient to favour the C-C bond formation as a consequence of the low nucleophilic character of enols. Int...

Transmetallation from CCC-NHC pincer Zr complexes in the synthesis of air-stable CCC-NHC pincer Co(iii) complexes and initial hydroboration trials.

Development of CCC-NHC pincer Co complexes via transmetalation from Zr is reported. Formation of these air-stable Co(iii) complexes was achieved through use of a CoCl2 or Co(acac)3in situ or with a discrete CCC-NHC pincer Zr transmetallating agent. Preliminary activity in the hydroboration of styrene is reported. This facile methodology will further the development of CCC-NHC pincer first-row t...
