Journal ArticleDOI
Dehydrogenative Oxidation of Alcohols in Aqueous Media Using Water-Soluble and Reusable Cp*Ir Catalysts Bearing a Functional Bipyridine Ligand
TL;DR: A new catalytic system using a water-soluble Cp*Ir complex bearing a bipyridine-based functional ligand as catalyst has been developed and a variety of primary and secondary alcohols have been efficiently converted to aldehydes and ketones without using any oxidant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homogeneous catalytic system for reversible dehydrogenation-hydrogenation reactions of nitrogen heterocycles with reversible interconversion of catalytic species.
TL;DR: The first homogeneous catalytic system for the efficient reversible dehydrogenation-hydrogenation reactions of nitrogen heterocycles in one flask has been developed using the pyridonate Cp*Ir complex as the single catalyst at relatively low temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cp*Ir-catalyzed N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. A versatile and atom economical method for the synthesis of amines
TL;DR: In this paper, a catalytic system consisting of [Cp ∗ IrCl 2 ] 2 /NaHCO 3 for the N-alkylation of amines with primary and secondary alcohols as alkylating reagents has been developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ligand-promoted dehydrogenation of alcohols catalyzed by Cp*Ir complexes. A new catalytic system for oxidant-free oxidation of alcohols.
TL;DR: Various secondary alcohols can be dehydrogenatively oxidized to ketones under neutral conditions with high turnover numbers by using the new Cp*Ir catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Alkylation of amines with alcohols catalyzed by a Cp*Ir complex
TL;DR: In this article, a new catalytic system consisting of [Cp*IrCl2]2/K2CO3 (Cp *=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) for the N-alkylation of primary amines with alcohols has been developed.
