RESUMEN
C-H arylation with heterogeneous palladium was investigated. The surface oxidation of Pd nanoparticles with a hypervalent iodine reagent, [Ph2I]BF4, resulted in the generation of Pd(ii)-aryl-oxo clusters, which were characterized as the crucial intermediate.
RESUMEN
The transamidation of tertiary amides was achieved via nickel catalysis in combination with briphos ligands. N-Methyl-N-phenylbenzamide derivatives reacted with primary amines in the presence of NiCl2/briphos L4 to provide the transamidated products in moderate to good yields. Primary aromatic amines delivered higher product yields than aliphatic amines.
RESUMEN
The direct hydroformylation of trisubstituted olefins has been achieved with a combination of a Rh(I) catalyst and a π-acceptor phosphorus (briphos) ligand. A sterically bulky briphos ligand with a large cone angle that forms a 1:1 complex with Rh(I) is found to be reactive for the hydroformylation of trisubstituted olefins. The aldehyde products were obtained with high diastereoselectivity (>99:1) and regioselectivity (49%-81%).
RESUMEN
Direct transamidation of secondary amides was developed via nickel catalysis. In the presence of trimethylsilyl chloride and manganese, Ni(diglyme)Cl2 with a Briphos ligand efficiently promoted the transamidation of N-aryl benzamide derivatives with primary amines to afford the corresponding secondary amides in moderate to good yields. Primary amines bearing electron-donating groups gave higher yields of the transamidation products.
RESUMEN
Rh(0)/Rh(iii) core-shell nanoparticles were prepared by surface oxidation of Rh nanoparticles with N-bromosuccinimide. They were employed as heterogeneous catalysts for cyclic carbonate synthesis from propylene oxide and CO2, and exhibited high activity and excellent recyclability due to Lewis acidic Rh(iii) species on the shells.
