Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic X–H insertion reactions based on carbenoids

TL;DR: The following review will explore the historical development of X-H insertion and give an up-to-date account of the metal catalysts most often employed, including an assessment of their strengths and weaknesses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ru complexes bearing bidentate carbenes: from innocent curiosity to uniquely effective catalysts for olefin metathesis

TL;DR: A new class of Ru-based catalysts, particularly those that do not bear a phosphine ligand, have been demonstrated to promote unique levels of reactivity in a variety of olefin metathesis reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chiral Ru-Based Complexes for Asymmetric Olefin Metathesis: Enhancement of Catalyst Activity through Steric and Electronic Modifications

TL;DR: The present findings illustrate that modified Ru complexes (3e and 3f) deliver reactivity levels that are more than 2 orders of magnitude higher than 3.0 and indicate that structural modifications of chiral complex 3 does not always correspond to those of the related achiral complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly site- and enantioselective Cu-catalyzed allylic alkylation reactions with easily accessible vinylaluminum reagents.

TL;DR: An efficient method for catalytic asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) of allylic phosphates with vinylaluminum reagents is reported, and the hydroalumination/catalytic AAA sequence can be performed in a single vessel, on gram scale.
