Carboxylate-assisted transition-metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalizations: mechanism and scope.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the development and scope of carboxylates as cocatalysts in transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalizations until autumn 2010 and proposes new acronyms, such as CMD (concerted metalationdeprotonation), IES (internal electrophilic substitution), or AMLA (ambiphilic metal ligand activation), which describe related mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applications of acceptorless dehydrogenation and related transformations in chemical synthesis.

TL;DR: Acceptorless dehydrogenation and related dehydrogenative coupling reactions have the potential for redirecting synthetic strategies to the use of sustainable resources, devoid of toxic reagents and deleterious side reactions, with no waste generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dehydrogenation and related reactions catalyzed by iridium pincer complexes

TL;DR: McDonald et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a method to solve the problem of protein synthesis in the context of the 239th American Chemical Society (ACS) National Meeting of Organometallics 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI

Redox-active ligands in catalysis

TL;DR: Odd-electron, redox-active ligands are discussed in the context of catalysis and their participation in catalytic processes and related stoichiometric transformations are discussed.

Asymmetric Catalysis by Architectural and Functional Molecular Engineering: Practical Chemo‐ and Stereoselective Hydrogenation of Ketones

TL;DR: The newly devised [RuCl(2)(phosphane)(2)(1,2-diamine)] complexes are excellent precatalysts for homogeneous hydrogenation of simple ketones which lack any functionality capable of interacting with the metal center.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct Synthesis of Amides from Alcohols and Amines with Liberation of H2

TL;DR: A reaction in which primary amines are directly acylated by equimolar amounts of alcohols to produce amides and molecular hydrogen in high yields and high turnover numbers is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanistic aspects of transition metal-catalyzed hydrogen transfer reactions.

TL;DR: In this tutorial review recent mechanistic studies on transition metal-catalyzed hydrogen transfer reactions are discussed and an important question is whether the substrate coordinates to the metal (inner-sphere hydrogen transfer) or if there is a direct concerted transfer of hydrogen from the metal to substrate (outer-spheres hydrogen transfer).
Journal ArticleDOI

Borrowing hydrogen in the activation of alcohols

TL;DR: In this paper, the metal catalyst returned the hydrogen to the transformed carbonyl compound, leading to an overall process in which alcohols can be converted into amines, compounds containing CC bonds and β-functionalised alcohols.
