چکیده

The 1,3-diaryl-imidazolium chlorides IPr.HCl (aryl = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl), IMes.HCl (aryl = 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) and IXy.HCl (aryl = 2,6-dimethylphenyl), precursors to widely used N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands and catalysts, were prepared in high yields (81%, 69% and 89%, respectively) by the reaction of 1,4-diaryl-1, 4-diazabutadienes, paraformaldehyde and chlorotrimethylsilane in dilute ethyl acetate solution. A reaction mechanism involving a 1,5-dipolar electrocyclization is proposed.

Efficient synthetic protocols for the preparation of common N-heterocyclic carbene precursors

The one-pot condensation of glyoxal, two equivalents of cyclohexylamine, and paraformaldehyde in the presence of aqueous HBF4 provided a straightforward access to 1,3-dicyclohexylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (ICy·HBF4). 1,3-Dibenzylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (IBn·HBF4) was obtained along the same lines. To synthesize 1,3-diarylmidazolium salts, it was necessary to isolate the intermediate N...

Rh-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex-catalyzed addition of phenylboronic acid to N-sulfonyl and N-phosphinoyl aldimines.

Rh-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes were generated in situ from imidazolium salts, [RhCl(cod)](2) and t-BuOK in dioxane. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Rh-NHC complexes, the addition reaction of phenylboronic acid to N-sulfonylarylimines and N-phosphinyolarylimines gave the corresponding amines in high yields.

N-heterocyclic carbene ligands in copper-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to N-sulfonylimines.

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) were generated in-situ from imidazolium and imidazolinium salts by deprotonation of C-2 hydrogen and were used as ligands in the copper-catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to N-sulfonylimines. The copper-NHC complexes were shown to possess an efficient ligand acceleration effect (LAE).

A short and modular synthesis of bulky and electron-rich N-phosphinomethyl-functionalised N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.

Bulky and electron-rich N-phosphinomethyl-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene transition metal complexes have been prepared in a short and efficient protocol. The modular synthesis allows one to convert borane-protected phosphino-functionalized imidazolium salts into their corresponding metal chelate complexes in a one-pot procedure.

Rhenium complexes of bidentate, bis-bidentate and tridentate N-heterocyclic carbene ligands.

A series of eight Rhenium(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of the general form [ReCl(CO)3(C^C)] (where C^C is a bis(NHC) bidentate ligand), [ReCl(CO)3(C^C)]2 (where C^C is a bis-bidentate tetra-NHC ligand) and [Re(CO)3(C^N^C)](+)[X](-) (where C^N^C is a bis(NHC)-amine ligand and the counter ion X is either the ReO4(-) or PF6(-)) have been synthesised using a Ag2O transmetallation proto...
