The Au(III) complex Au(tpy)(OAcF)2 (OAcF = OCOCF3; tpy = 2-(p-tolyl)pyridine) catalyzes the anti addition of trifluoroacetic acid (HOAcF) to acetylene to furnish vinyl trifluor- oacetate. The Au(III) vinyl complex Au(tpy)(OAcF)(CHCHOAcF) (vinyl group bond ...
In homogeneous catalysis, the main emphasis on improving catalyst performance (rate, yield and selectivity) is directed towards manipulation of the ligands. The steric and electronic effects of ligands are extremely well understood and the rational design ...
Ruthenium complexes, in particular cyclopentadienyl ruthenium (II) derivatives, catalyze a vast number of transformations in the field of homogenous catalysis. Herein we describe the first synthesis of efficient chiral cationic cyclopentadienyl ruthenium ( ...
Cyclopentadienyl ruthenium(II) complexes are an important class of homogenous catalysts. They engage in a multitude of different transformations, for example cycloisomerizations. Due to a lack of suitable chiral cyclopentadienyl ligands, no efficient enant ...
Encapsulation of metal nanoclusters in porous solid polymer materials is a promising approach to combine the outstanding properties of both, heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts. We report heterogeneous nano-engineered catalysts containing Pd-nanopartic ...
The use of tethers allows to overcome reactivity and selectivity issues often encountered with intermolecular reactions. Although tethers have been successfully applied for decades, their installation and removal usually requires additional steps. This min ...
Metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are powerful and widespread methods for the carbon-carbon bond formation. Among the electrophile partners, non-activated alkyl halides remain challenging substrates because of their reluctance towards oxidative addi ...
Pincer complexes are widely applied in homogeneous catalysis. However, only very recently has the first pincer complex been discovered in the active site of a metalloenzyme, namely, lactate racemase. Here, we report a synthetic model of the active site of ...
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 ...
Replacement of a dimethyl amino group of the amidobis(amine) nickel(II) pincer complex (1), [((N2N)-N-Me)-Ni-Cl], by a pyrrolidino group resulted in a new nickel(II) pincer complex (2), [((PNNN)-N-yr-N-Me)Ni-Cl]. Complex 2 is an efficient catalyst for Kuma ...
