A mixture of HBPin with KOtBu was found to activate cobalt salt to form a heterotopic cobalt species that is highly active for catalytic intermolecular trimerization of alkynes. This protocol affords 1,2,4-regioisomers in good yields with high regioselectivities under mild conditions. These salient features, together with the operational simplicity and high efficiency, as well as obviating the use of any costly and/or air sensitive ligands, renders the protocol promising for practical applications.

We report the synthesis and characterization of simple di(aminomethyl)pyridine ligated iron-pincer complexes, which catalyzed the regioselective [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization of terminal aryl and alkyl alkynes to provide the 1,2,4-trisubstituted benzene molecules. Interestingly, internal alkynes also exhibited similar cyclization and resulted in hexa-substituted benzene compounds. Increased steric bulk on pincer ligands diminished the selectivity for cycloaddition. Cyclotrimerization reactions proceeded at room temperature upon activation of catalyst by a Grignard reagent. EPR studies indicated thermally induced spin crossover effect in catalyst.

A general protocol for the highly efficient synthesis of polyarylated benzene derivatives by multiple Suzuki-Miyaura reactions of polychlorinated benzenes was developed. Using bulky and electron-rich phosphine ligands, up to quantitative yields of the desired compounds were achieved. Moreover, the reactions show good functional group tolerance and allow the employment of sterically demanding boronic acids.

In this study, we report a practical catalytic system, [RuCl 2(p-cymene)]2/IPr (IPr: 1,3-bis(2,6 diisopropylphenyl) imidazol-2-ylidene), that can switch between cyclotrimerization and cross enyne metathesis. The cyclotrimerization reaction of phenylacetylene catalyzed by [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 can be switched to enyne metathesis by the introduction of a sterically hindered N-heterocyclic carbene. The 1,3-diene formed during this reaction reacts with dienophiles to form the Diels-Alder adduct. A practical one-pot synthesis method, utilizing enyne metathesis/Diels-Alder reactions, was used to construct cyclic compounds in an efficient manner.

In this study, a practical and inexpensive switchable catalytic system (cyclotrimerization vs. dimerization), [RuCl2(p-cymene)] 2/PR3 has been developed for the catalytic dimerization of terminal alkynes. Bulky and basic phosphine derivatives, PCy3 and P(i-Pr)3, were used with [RuCl2(p-cymene)] 2 and excess of terminal alkyne to in situ formation of vinylidenic intermediates which are active towards dimerization reactions. Effect of phosphine/ruthenium ratio has been investigated. A solvent study was carried out and toluene was found to be the most versatile solvent for both cyclotrimerization and dimerization reactions. A set of aryl and alkyl acetylenes were chosen as substrates to investigate the effect of the nature of the substrates on alkyne dimerization reactions catalyzed by [RuCl 2(p-cymene)]2/PR3. In conclusion, we have shown that [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2/PCy3 can be used as a practical and inexpensive catalytic system which has a switchable selectivity towards cyclotrimerization and dimerization reactions. Best results in means of regioselectivity and yield were observed by using arylacetylene derivatives in these reactions. This catalytic system emerges as an economical method for the transformation of arylacetylenes to corresponding enyne and arene derivatives in excellent yields and selectivity.
