CONSPECTUS: Ligand development plays an essential role in the advance of homogeneous catalysis. Tridentate, meridionally coordinating ligands, commonly termed pincer ligands, have been established as a privileged class of ligands in catalysis because they ...
This paper presents a local control approach to generate remote quiet zones. To deal with situations where global control can hardly be achieved, it is proposed to use an arrangement of spot-type sound reducers as originally suggested by Olson and May. Ass ...
Cross-coupling reactions of non-activated alkyl halides are potentially useful chemical transformations. At the same time, however, they are challenging due to a series of unproductive side reactions. Recently, significant progress has been made to overcom ...
A nickel(II) pincer complex, [((N2N)-N-Me)Ni-Cl], was used to catalyze alkyl-alkyl and alkyl-aryl Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions of unactivated alkyl halides. The coupling of 9-alkyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane and 9-phenyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane rea ...
The nickel pincer complex 1 catalyzes the cross-coupling of the title compounds with remarkable substrate scope and functional group tolerance. A nickel/alkynyl species was isolated and shown to be catalytically competent. THF=tetrahydrofuran, O-TMEDA=bis[ ...
