Heterogeneously catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura conversion of broad scope

2012

The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups in the coupling partners and is usually performed in solution under homogeneous conditions at T ¢ 60 uC using 2–3 mol% catalytic amounts. The catalyst is often a Pd(0) complex with triarylphosphane ligands. 2 The catalytic cycle (Scheme 2) begins with the oxidative addition of an aryl halide to a Pd(0) species formed in situ to form an arylpalladium(II) halide intermediate. 3 Chloroarenes, especially nonactivated aryl chlorides, are notoriously less reactive due to the stability of the C–Cl bond (the relative reactivity of Ar–X is correlated to the respective bond dissociation energy: Ph–Cl: 96 kcal mol 21 ,P h–Br: 81 kcal mol 21 ,P …

Electrosynthesis as a powerful method for the generation of catalytic intermediates: efficient isolation of a palladium aryl halide oxidative additio…

2011

International audience; Polyphosphane ligands of controlled conformation promote highly efficient palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Electrosynthesis has been used as a new straightforward method to obtain important intermediates in the search for a better mechanistic understanding. As a proof of concept, the facile synthesis of a phenyl iodopalladium(II) complex (2) was conducted at the electrolysis scale from a readily electrogenerated unstable Pd0 precursor.

The oligomerisation of phenylacetylenes with rhodium(I) and P ligands as the catalytic system

1991

Abstract The dependence of the oligomerisation of phenylacetylene to cyclotrimers and dimers upon a Rh(I) complex with different P ligands as the catalytic system has been studied. The influence of substituents in the phenyl ring of the substrate has been examined as well. A selective cyclotrimerisation of phenylacetylenes is achieved with [1,5-C6H10RhCl]2 as the catalyst. A decrease of the selectivity appears with very bulky o-substituents or a substitution in the 2,6-position of phenylacetylene. [P]-control maps indicate a mono-association of the ligand accompanied by a reduced activity of the system. The second association of a P ligand results in an inhibition of the cyclotrimerisation …

Reversible, room-temperature C—C bond activation of benzene by an isolable metal complex

2019

The activation of C-C bonds is of fundamental interest in the construction of complex molecules from petrochemical feedstocks. In the case of the archetypal aromatic hydrocarbon benzene, C-C cleavage is thermodynamically disfavored, and is brought about only by transient highly reactive species generated in situ. Here we show that the oxidative addition of the C-C bond in benzene by an isolated metal complex is not only possible, but occurs at room temperature and reversibly at a single aluminium center in [(NON)Al]- (where NON = 4,5-bis(2,6-diisopropylanilido)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethylxanthene). Selectivity over C-H bond activation is achieved kinetically and allows for the generation…

Unprecedented Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reaction of α-Bromo Sulfoxides with Boronic Acids

2003

[reaction: see text] A new Suzuki-type palladium-catalyzed reaction of boronic acids with alpha-bromo sulfoxides has been developed using a protocol similar to the well-documented reaction of boronic acids with aryl halides. Both cross-coupling and homocoupling processes were observed. The best yields in cross-coupling products were obtained when the presence of oxygen was carefully excluded using degassed solvents. The oxidative addition palladium complex intermediate could be isolated and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction.

Reactions of m-Terphenyl-Stabilized Germylene and Stannylene with Water and Methanol: Oxidative Addition versus Arene Elimination and Different React…

2015

Reactions of the divalent germylene Ge(ArMe6)2 (ArMe6 = C6H3-2,6-{C6H2-2,4,6-(CH3)3}2) with water or methanol gave the Ge(IV) insertion product (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OH (1) or (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OMe (2), respectively. In contrast, its stannylene congener Sn(ArMe6)2 reacted with water or methanol to produce the Sn(II) species {ArMe6Sn(μ-OH)}2 (3) or {ArMe6Sn(μ-OMe)}2 (4), respectively, with elimination of ArMe6H. Compounds 1–4 were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray crystallography. Density functional theory calculations yielded mechanistic insight into the formation of (ArMe6)2Ge(H)OH and {ArMe6Sn(μ-OH)}2. The insertion of an m-terphenyl-stabilized germylene into the O–H bond was…

Controlling Oxidative Addition and Reductive Elimination at Tin(I) via Hemi-Lability.

2021

We report on the synthesis of a distannyne supported by a pincer ligand bearing pendant amine donors that is capable of reversibly activating E–H bonds at one or both of the tin centres through dissociation of the hemi-labile N–Sn donor/acceptor interactions. This chemistry can be exploited to sequentially (and reversibly) assemble mixed-valence chains of tin atoms of the type ArSn{Sn(Ar)H} n SnAr ( n = 1, 2). The experimentally observed (decreasing) propensity towards chain growth with increasing chain length can be rationalized both thermodynamically and kinetically by the electron-withdrawing properties of the –Sn(Ar)H– backbone units generated via oxidative addition. peerReviewed

On the mechanism of imine elimination from Fischer tungsten carbene complexes

2016

(Aminoferrocenyl)(ferrocenyl)carbene(pentacarbonyl)tungsten(0) (CO)5W=C(NHFc)Fc (W(CO)5(E-2)) is synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the ethoxy group of (CO)5W=C(OEt)Fc (M(CO)5(1Et)) by ferrocenyl amide Fc-NH– (Fc = ferrocenyl). W(CO)5(E-2) thermally and photochemically eliminates bulky E-1,2-diferrocenylimine (E-3) via a formal 1,2-H shift from the N to the carbene C atom. Kinetic and mechanistic studies to the formation of imine E-3 are performed by NMR, IR and UV–vis spectroscopy and liquid injection field desorption ionization (LIFDI) mass spectrometry as well as by trapping experiments for low-coordinate tungsten complexes with triphenylphosphane. W(CO)5(E-2) decays thermally i…
