Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of cyclic enones via direct palladium-catalyzed aerobic dehydrogenation of ketones.
Tianning Diao,Shannon S. Stahl +1 more
TL;DR: Pd(DMSO)(2)(TFA)(2) is reported to be a catalyst for direct dehydrogenation of cyclohexanones and other cyclic ketones to the corresponding enones, using O(2) as the oxidant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions
TL;DR: Nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have expanded the chemical space of accessible structures and enabled new synthetic disconnections as mentioned in this paper, and the growing utility of Ni catalysis is, in no small part, due to advances in fundamental understanding of the properties of Ni catalysts and the mechanisms by which the reactions occur.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nickel-Catalyzed Dicarbofunctionalization of Alkenes
Xiaoxu Qi,Tianning Diao +1 more
TL;DR: Great opportunities exist for the development of three-component difunctionalization reactions with broad substrate scopes and tunable chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Nickel-Catalyzed Coupling Reactions and Applications in Alkene Functionalization.
TL;DR: The low redox potentials of Ni have allowed us to develop a reductive, trans-selective diene cyclization, wherein a classic two-electron mechanism operates on a Ni(I)/Ni(III) platform, accounting for the chemo- and stereoselectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bis(imino)pyridine Cobalt-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Silylation of Alkenes: Scope, Mechanism, and Origins of Selective Allylsilane Formation
Crisita Carmen Hojilla Atienza,Tianning Diao,Keith J. Weller,Susan A. Nye,Kenrick M. Lewis,Johannes G.P. Delis,Julie L. Boyer,Aroop Kumar Roy,Paul J. Chirik +8 more
TL;DR: The aryl-substituted bis(imino)pyridine cobalt methyl complex, ((Mes)PDI)CoCH3), promotes the catalytic dehydrogenative silylation of linear α-olefins to selectively form the corresponding allylsilanes with commercially relevant tertiary silanes such as (Me3SiO)2MeSiH and (EtO)3SiH.
