N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes in C–H Activation Reactions
TL;DR: Through discussing the role of NHC ligands in promoting challenging C-H activation methods, the reader is provided with an overview of this important area and its crucial role in forging carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds by directly engaging ubiquitous C- H bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
IPr# - highly hindered, broadly applicable N-heterocyclic carbenes
Qun Zhao,Guangrong Meng,Guangchen Li,Carol R. Flach,Richard Mendelsohn,Roger A. Lalancette,Roman Szostak,Michal Szostak +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the hash peralkylation-based NHC ligands, including IPr#, Np# and BIAN-IPr#, were commercialized in collaboration with Millipore Sigma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Redox-Neutral Decarbonylative Cross-Couplings Coming of Age
TL;DR: The use of acid fluorides as effective cross-coupling partners has been found to enable control of the decarbonylation selectivity and facilitates challenging Pd0 -catalyzed nucleophilic trifluoromethylation and exogenous base-free Suzuki cross- coupling reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium(0)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Anilineswith Organoboranes by Selective Carbon–Nitrogen Cleavage
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report that amines are among the most prevalent motifs across organic and bioactive molecules and selective activation of neutral carbon-nitrogen bonds is of great synthetic importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium(0)-sequential catalysis for the synthesis of sterically hindered amines by C-H arylation/hydrosilylation.
TL;DR: In this paper, sequential ruthenium(0)-catalysis was used for the synthesis of sterically-hindered amines via direct C-H arylation of simple imines and imine hydrosilylation.
