This dissertation is devoted to the development of well-defined nickel complexes as catalysts for cross coupling processes of alkyl electrophiles. In chapter one, we summarize recent cross coupling methodologies of alkyl electrophiles using nickel based ca ...
Cross-coupling reactions of non-activated alkyl halides are potentially useful chemical transformations. At the same time, however, they are challenging due to a series of unproductive side reactions. Recently, significant progress has been made to overcom ...
The aim of the project was to investigate iron bis(oxazolinylphenyl)amino (bopa) pincer complexes as pre-catalysts in the enantioselective Kumada cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl halides with aryl Grignard reagents. From this preliminary cross-couplin ...
Iron-catalyzed alkylaryl Kumada coupling has developed into an efficient synthetic method, yet its mechanism remains vague. Here, we apply a bis(oxazolinylphenyl)amido pincer ligand (Bopa) to stabilize the catalytically active Fe center, resulting in isola ...
The first C2-selective alkynylation of indoles using the hypervalent iodine reagent triisopropylsilylethyny1-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (TIPS-EBX) with Pd(II) as a catalyst is described. This convenient and robust method gives a single-step access to substi ...
As 3-aza-1,5-enynes, internal and terminal alkyne-bearing tertiary enamides underwent an efficient Au(I)-catalyzed 6-endo-dig cyclization reaction to afford a variety of di- to penta-substituted 1,2-dihydropyridine derivatives in high yields. The cyclizati ...
Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted much attention because of their unusual charac- teristics (vapor pressure, condictivity, etc.). Furthermore, they can be designed to display desired properties specific to an application (task-specific ionic liquid, TSILs ...
The stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes is challenging. Here, we show that an iron-catalyzed anti-selective carbozincation of terminal alkynes can be combined with a base-metal-catalyzed cross coupling to prepare trisubstituted alkenes in a ...
The mechanism of alkylaryl Kumada coupling catalyzed by the nickel pincer complex Nickamine was studied. Experiments using radical-probe substrates and DFT calculations established a bimetallic oxidative addition mechanism. Kinetic measurements showed that ...
Many nickel-based catalysts have been reported for cross-coupling reactions of nonactivated alkyl halides. The mechanistic understanding of these reactions is still primitive. Here we report a mechanistic study of alkyl-alkyl Kumada coupling catalyzed by a ...
