Deep Eutectic Mixtures: Promising Sustainable Solvents for Metal-Catalysed and Metal-Mediated Organic Reactions
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the progress made in metal-mediated and metal-catalysed organic reactions performed in a new family of inexpensive, greener and biorenewable eutectic mixtures, the so-called deep eco-vents (DESs), as environmentally friendly reaction media is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Introducing Deep Eutectic Solvents to Polar Organometallic Chemistry: Chemoselective Addition of Organolithium and Grignard Reagents to Ketones in Air
TL;DR: Deep eutetic solvents (DESs) are introduced as a green alternative media to carry out chemoselective additions of ketones in air at room temperature and suggest that a kinetic activation of the alkylating reagents is taking place, favoring nucleophilic addition over the competitive hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploiting Deep Eutectic Solvents and Organolithium Reagent Partnerships: Chemoselective Ultrafast Addition to Imines and Quinolines Under Aerobic Ambient Temperature Conditions.
TL;DR: Comparing RLi reactivities in DESs with those observed in pure glycerol or THF suggests a kinetic anionic activation of the alkylating reagents occurs, favoring nucleophilic addition over competitive hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A highly efficient copper(I) catalyst for the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides with terminal and 1-iodoalkynes in water: regioselective synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted and 1,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles
TL;DR: In this paper, a new water soluble Cu(I) complex that exhibits a versatile and high catalytic activity in the Huisgen cycloadditions of azides and terminal alkynes in aqueous media under mild conditions is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactivity of polar organometallic compounds in unconventional reaction media : challenges and opportunities
TL;DR: In this paper, a microreview critically analyses the state of the art with regard to this topic and showcases recent developments and breakthroughs that are becoming new research directions in this field, and discusses the reactivity of organometallic compounds of s-, p- and d-block elements in unconventional solvents.
