Journal ArticleDOI
Magnesium-catalysed nitrile hydroboration
Catherine Weetman,Mathew D. Anker,Merle Arrowsmith,Michael S. Hill,Gabriele Kociok-Köhn,David J. Liptrot,Mary F. Mahon +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a β-diketiminato n-butylmagnesium complex is presented as a selective precatalyst for the reductive hydroboration of organic nitriles with pinacolborane (HBpin).
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective reduction of CO2 to a methanol equivalent by B(C6F5)3-activated alkaline earth catalysis
Mathew D. Anker,Merle Arrowsmith,Peter Bellham,Michael S. Hill,Gabriele Kociok-Köhn,David J. Liptrot,Mary F. Mahon,Catherine Weetman +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, β-diketiminato Mg and Ca amidoborane compounds with B(C6F5)3 induce hydride elimination and formation of alkaline earth hydrido-tris(pentafluorophenyl)borate derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction vs. Addition: The Reaction of an Aluminyl Anion with 1,3,5,7-Cyclooctatetraene.
TL;DR: DFT calculations indicate significant aromatic character, consistent with reduction to [COT]2- .
Journal ArticleDOI
Alkaline Earth-Centered CO Homologation, Reduction, and Amine Carbonylation
Mathew D. Anker,Christos E. Kefalidis,Yan-Yan Yang,Jian Fang,Michael S. Hill,Mary F. Mahon,Laurent Maron +6 more
TL;DR: Although a sequence of amine formylation and deoxygenation may be readily envisaged for the catalytic utilization of CO as a C1 source in the production of methylamines, the observations demonstrate that competitive amine-borane dehydrocoupling is too facile under the conditions of 1 atm of CO employed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alkaline-Earth-Promoted CO Homologation and Reductive Catalysis
TL;DR: Reaction between a β-diketiminato magnesium hydride and carbon monoxide results in the isolation of a dimeric cis-enediolate species through the reductive coupling of two CO molecules.
