Various methods for the synthesis of bimetallic complexes, in which two different metal fragments which are connected by two or three halogeno bridges, are reported. The reactions are usually fast and give rise to structurally defined products in quantitat ...
Direct reaction between [Cr(CO)6] and arenes with ionic substituents affords the corresponding arene-chromium tricarbonyl complexes, [Cr(CO)3(arene)], in only modest yield. In contrast, these complexes can be prepared in pure form in ...
The use of organometallic reagents for functionalization of arenes and heterocycles has recently been renewed by our group. The use of bulky trialkylsilyl groups allows one to shield an acidic position by steric hindrance and the introduction of a chlorine ...
(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)trimethyl- and triethylsilane exhibit untypical reactivity patterns toward strong bases: when treated at -100 °C with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide two, with sec- or tert-butyllithium even three organometallic intermediates are ...
An efficient and concise total synthesis of (+)-lentiginosine (1) starting from an L-tartaric acid-derived nitrone using organometallic addition, indium-catalyzed reduction, and ring-closing metathesis reaction as the key steps is reported. Structural anal ...
The metalation of 2,3-, 2,6-, 2,4- and 3,5-dichlorobenzotrifluorides can be readily effected with std. reagents such as lithium diisopropylamide, lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, and butyllithium at the chlorine-adjacent 4- and 3-positions and the ch ...
This paper is aimed at introducing the organometallic chemist to the fascinating area of organometallic pharmaceuticals. It commences by identifying the properties of organometallic (transition metal) compounds that lend themselves to medical applications. ...
In a model study, 3-fluorophenol and 3-fluoropyridine were converted into all possible regioisomers of the corresponding carboxylic acids by passing through the corresponding organometallic intermediates. As an attempt to generalize the findings reveals, a ...
(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)trimethyl- and -triethylsilane exhibit untypical reactivity patterns toward strong bases. When treated at -100 DegC with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, they give rise to two, with sec- or tert-butyllithium even three, different ...
A review. This review describes a concept aimed at rational and maximal structure proliferation. To this end, simple arom. or heterocyclic starting materials, often bulk chems., are converted into all regioisomerically possible polar organometallic interme ...
