Mechanistic Insights into the Cu(I)- and Cu(II)-Catalyzed Cyclization of o-Alkynylbenzaldehydes: The Solvent DMF and Oxidation State of Copper Affect the Reaction Mechanism.
TL;DR: The BhandHLYP density functional is conducted to elucidate the mechanisms of Cu(I)- and Cu(II)-catalyzed reactions of o-alkynylbenzaldehydes with a nucleophile (MeOH), and it is found that substrate MeOH also plays a role similar to that of DMF in the hydrogen-transport reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms for the synthesis of conjugated enynes from diphenylacetylene and trimethylsilylacetylene catalyzed by a nickel(0) complex: DFT study of ligand-controlled selectivity
TL;DR: Density functional theory was utilized to elucidate the reaction mechanisms of and the key factors that influence the Ni(0)-catalyzed cross-dimerization and -trimerization of trimethylsilylacetylene and diphenylacetylene, revealing that the electron-donating ability of the ligand plays a crucial role in determining the regionselectivity of this tandem reaction.
