Ruthenium‐Catalyzed Oxidative Annulation by Cleavage of CH/NH Bonds
TL;DR: This work observed unprecedented ruthenium-catalyzed direct annulations of alkynes through the chemoand site-selective functionalization of both C H and N H bonds, and became interested in understanding the remarkable activity of the novel catalytic system.
Journal ArticleDOI
meta-Selective C-H bond alkylation with secondary alkyl halides
Nora Hofmann,Lutz Ackermann +1 more
TL;DR: Independently prepared cycloruthenated complexes were found to be catalytically active provided that a carboxylate ligand was present, thereby highlighting the key importance of car boxylate assistance for effective meta-selective C-H bond alkylations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium-catalyzed regioselective direct alkylation of arenes with unactivated alkyl halides through C-H bond cleavage.
TL;DR: Findings are reported on the development of such C H bond functionalization reactions, which allowed for the efficient conversion of primary and secondary alkyl halides and proved applicable to neopentyl-substituted electrophiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative synthesis of 2-pyridones through C-H/N-H bond functionalizations.
TL;DR: An inexpensive ruthenium catalyst enabled oxidative annulations of alkynes by acrylamides with ample scope, which allowed for the preparation of 2-pyridones employing various electron-rich and electron-deficient acryamides as well as (di)aryl- and (di)-substituted alkynes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carboxylate-assisted ruthenium-catalyzed direct alkylations of ketimines.
TL;DR: The mechanism of carboxylate-assisted ruthenium(II)-catalyzed direct alkylations of ketimines with unactivated alkyl halides was probed through experimental studies and the remarkable chemoselectivity of the broadly applicable catalyst enabled directAlkylations on H(2)O or under solvent-free reaction conditions.
