The downfield chem. shifts of arene hydrogens (delta 1H) are due only in part to the pi ring current contribution [sigma.dblvert.(pi)]; local framework effects are equally important. Neither proton chem. shifts nor even sigma.dblvert.(pi) tensor elements, ...
By simply heating a toluene soln. of isocyanoacetamide, amine, and aldehyde, a clean three-component reaction occurred to provide the 6-azaindolines and pyrrolidinone-fused 6-azaindolines. E.g., heating a mixt. of morpholine, heptanal, and isocyanoacetamid ...
A ruthenium meso-tetra[4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzyl]porphyrin catalyst with four meso-polymerizable side chains was synthesized in three steps from commercially available starting materials. The polymerizable side chains allowed the incorporation of this complex ...
The basic aqueous coordination chemistry of Ru-II has been studied using the catalytically important TPPTS phosphine (TPPTS = trisodium salt of 3,3 ',3 ''-phosphinetriylbenzenesulfonic acid) and small gas molecules (H-2, CO, N-2) as ligands. As a result, n ...
A review. In an effort to develop new tripodal N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands for small mol. activation, two new classes of tripodal NHC ligands TIMER and TIMENR were synthesized. The C-anchored tris(carbene) ligand system TIMER (R = Me, t-Bu) forms ...
The trinuclear Ru complexes [RuCl2(PAd2Bu)]3 (1) and [RuCl2(PtBu2Cy)]3 (2) were obtained by reaction of [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 with 2 equiv of the resp. sterically demanding phosphine. Crystallog. analyses of 1 and 2 show that the three metal fragments are con ...
A bimetallic complex, in which a RuCl2 (eta(2)C(2)H(4))(PCy3) fragment is connected via three chloro, bridges to a (eta(6)-p-cymene)RuCl2 fragment, has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. This complex was used to cat ...
Novel chemical compounds of the general formula KA, in which K is a 5- or 6- membered heterocyclic ring having 1-3 hetereo atoms, which can be independently N, S, or 0 with the proviso that at least one of the hetereo atoms must be a quaternized n ...
(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 ...
