Synthetic methodologies for C-C and C-N bond formation involving alkyl radicals

C-C and C-N bonds are some of the most common structures in molecules ranging from drugs to catalysts and to food additives. Many coupling reactions were developed to form these types of bonds with excellent selectivity and good performance. Still, the syn ...

Functionalization of remote C(sp3)-H bonds enabled by copper-catalyzed coupling of O-acyloximes with terminal alkynes

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ruben Omar Torres Ochoa, Zhaodong Li

Transition metal catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with aryl(vinyl) (pseudo)halides has been successfully extended to alkyl halides for the synthesis of functionalized internal alkynes. The direct alkynylation of remote unfunctionali ...

Unexpected Indirect Dynamics in Base-Induced Elimination

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Base-induced elimination (E2) and bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (S(N)2) are two of the most versatile reactions that are important in preparative organic chemistry. These stereospecific reactions are often found in direct competition with each othe ...

Nickel-Catalyzed Regioselective Hydroalkylation and Hydroarylation of Alkenyl Boronic Esters

Xile Hu, Srikrishna Bera

Metal hydride catalyzed hydrocarbonation reactions of alkenes are an efficient approach to construct new carbon-carbon bonds from readily available alkenes. However, the regioselectivity of hydrocarbonation remains challenging to be controlled. In nickel h ...

A β-Carbon elimination strategy for convenient in situ access to cyclopentadienyl metal complexes

Nicolai Cramer, Matthew Wodrich, Benoît Daniel Bertrand Audic, Gints Smits

The electronic and steric properties of tailored cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligands are powerful handles to modulate the catalytic properties of their metal complexes. This requires the individual preparation, purification and storage of each ligand/metal combi ...

Nickel-catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Alkenes and Transition-Metal-Free Intermolecular α-C-H Amination of Ethers

Ivan Buslov

Transition-metal-catalyzed hydrosilylation of olefins is one of the most important methods for the preparation of organosilicon compounds, which have broad applications in both synthetic and material chemistry. For decades, precious metals, principally pla ...

Homogenous catalytic hydrogenation of bicarbonate with water soluble aryl phosphine ligands

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Katerina Stefania Sordakis

The chemical transformation of CO2 and bicarbonates into useful products becomes increasingly impor- tant as the atmospheric CO2 level has reached 400 ppm. Here a small library of sulfonated aryl mono- phosphines and aryl diphosphines was tested as stabili ...

Chemoselective Hydrogenation and Transfer Hydrogenation of Aldehydes Catalyzed by Iron(II) PONOP Pincer Complexes

Rosario Scopelliti, Xile Hu, Simona Mazza

Iron-catalyzed hydrogenation has drawn much attention, yet the scope and chemoselectivity of iron catalysis warrant further improvement. Here we report new iron pincer complexes as chemoselective hydrogenation and transfer hydrogenation catalysts. Several ...

Enantioselective Dehydrochlorination of delta-Hexachlorocyclohexane and delta-Pentachlorocyclohexene by LinA1 and LinA2 from Sphingobium indicum B90A

Christof Holliger

delta-Hexachlorocyclohexane (delta-HCH), one of the prevalent isomers of technical HCH, was enantioselectively dehydrochlorinated by the dehydrochlorinases LinA1 and LinA2 from Sphingobium indicum B90A to the very same delta-pentachlorocyclohexene enantiom ...
