Sequential Reactions of Alkynes on an Iridium(III) Single Site

Sequential insertion of terminal alkynes on IrIII cyclometalated complexes allow the formation of novel metallapolycycles in a controlled and efficient manner. ortho-Methylarylethynyl derivatives led to an unprecedented cascade combination of three fundamental processes (C−C bond formation, C(sp3)−H activation, and reductive coupling) on a single IrIII center, in a process compatible with functionalized biomolecules and photoactive substrates. The reaction with tert-butylacetylene led to a [6,5,4]-polycycle that incorporates an iridacyclobutenylidene in its structure. The sequence is a multicomponent reaction in which the metal not only promotes the different steps but also determines their…

An Entry to Mixed NHC-Fischer Carbene Complexes and Zwitterionic Group 6 Metal Alkenyls

The addition of NHCs to α,β-unsaturated Cr(0) and W(0) (Fischer) carbene complexes is strongly dependent on the electrophilicity of the carbene carbon. Electrophilic alkoxy-carbene complexes quantitatively react with NHCs to yield stable zwitterionic (racemic) Cr(0) - and W(0) -alkenyls with total regio- and E-stereoselectivity. Less electrophilic aminocarbenes react with NHCs to promote the displacement of a CO ligand and yield "mixed" NHC/Fischer biscarbenes in a process that is unprecedented in group 6 metal-carbene chemistry. In fact, the compounds prepared, are some of the scarce examples of Fischer bisylidenes reported in the literature. The electrochemistry of the zwitterionic Cr(0) …
