Hydroboration of alkynes and nitriles using an α-diimine cobalt hydride catalyst

Addition of NaEt3BH to (Ph2PPrDI)CoCl2 affords the corresponding monohydride, (Ph2PPrDI)CoH. X-ray diffraction and DFT calculations indicate that this compound possesses a radical monoanion α-DI chelate and a Co(ii) centre. Notably, (Ph2PPrDI)CoH catalyzes the hydroboration of alkynes and dihydroboration of nitriles under mild conditions.

Creating High Regioselectivity by Electronic Metal-Support Interaction of a Single-Atomic-Site Catalyst

Ligands are the most commonly used means to control the regioselectivity of organic reactions. It is very important to develop new regioselective control methods for organic synthesis. In this study, we designed and synthesized a single-atomic-site catalyst (SAC), namely, Cu1-TiC, with strong electronic metal-support interaction (EMSI) effects by studying various reaction mechanisms. π cloud back-donation to the alkyne on the metal catalytic intermediate was enhanced during the reaction by using transient electron-rich characteristics. In this way, the reaction achieved highly linear-E-type regioselective conversion of electronically unbiased alkynes and completely avoided the formation of branched isomers (ln:br >100:1, TON up to 612, 3 times higher than previously recorded). The structural elements of the SACs were designed following the requirements of the synthesis mechanism. Every element in the catalyst played an important role in the synthesis mechanism. This demonstrated that the EMSI, which is normally thought to be responsible for the improvement in catalytic efficiency and durability in heterogeneous catalysis, now first shows exciting potential for regulating the regioselectivity in homogeneous catalysis.

Aluminum-Catalyzed Selective Hydroboration of Nitriles and Alkynes: A Multifunctional Catalyst

The reaction of LH [L = {(ArNH)(ArN)-C=N-C=(NAr)(NHAr)}; Ar =2,6-Et2-C6H3] with a commercially available alane amine adduct (H3Al·NMe2Et) in toluene resulted in the formation of a conjugated bis-guanidinate (CBG)-supported aluminum dihydride complex, i.e., LAlH2 (1), in good yield. The new complex has been thoroughly characterized by multinuclear magnetic resonance, IR, mass, and elemental analyses, including single-crystal structural studies. Further, we have demonstrated the aluminum-catalyzed hydroboration of a variety of nitriles and alkynes. Moreover, aluminum-catalyzed hydroboration is expanded to more challenging substrates such as alkene, pyridine, imine, carbodiimide, and isocyanides. More importantly, we have shown that the aluminum dihydride catalyzed both intra- A nd intermolecular chemoselective hydroboration of nitriles and alkynes over other reducible functionalities for the first time.

Silver-catalyzed highly regioselective formal hydroboration of alkynes

A silver(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene complex has proven to be a potent catalyst for formal hydroboration of alkynes, providing a variety of borylalkenes in regio- and stereoselective manners. Under the silver catalysis, allenes also undergo regioselective hydroboration to give borylalkenes.

Enantioselective synthesis of anti homoallylic alcohols from terminal alkynes and aldehydes based on concomitant use of a cationic iridium complex and a chiral phosphoric acid

We report a highly diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of anti homoallylic alcohols from terminal alkynes via (E)-1-alkenylboronates based upon two catalytic reactions: a cationic iridium complex-catalyzed olefin transposition of (E)-1-alkenylboronates and a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed allylation reaction of aldehydes.
