Theoretical studies on C–heteroatom bond formation via reductive elimination from group 10 M(PH3)2(CH3)(X) species (X = CH3, NH2, OH, SH) and the determination of metal–X bond strengths using density functional theory

TL;DR: Density functional calculations have been used to investigate C-C, C-N and C-O bond forming reactions via reductive elimination from Group 10 cis-M(PH3)2(CH3)(X) species and suggest that C(sp3)-N reductive Elimination should be feasible from Ni and Pd systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical Study of CO Migratory Insertion Reactions with Group 10 Metal−Alkyl and −Alkoxide Bonds

TL;DR: The results of density functional calculations on the alternative migratory insertion reactions of CO with the M−OMe and M−Me bonds of group 10 M(Me)(OMe)(PH3)2 model systems are reported in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical Study of the CO Migratory Insertion Reactions of Pt(Me)(OMe)(dppe) and Ni(Me)(OR)(bpy) (R = Me, O-p-C6H4CN): Comparison of Group 10 Metal−Alkyl, −Alkoxide, and −Aryloxide Bonds

TL;DR: The results of theoretical mechanistic studies on the alternative migratory insertion reactions of CO with the metal−oxygen and metal−carbon bonds of Pt(Me)(OMe)(dhpe) were reported in this paper.
