Asymmetric synthesis of dibenzo[b,d]azepines by Cu-catalyzed reductive or borylative cyclization
A copper-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular reductive cyclization for the synthesis of dibenzo[b,d]azepines is described. Use of 2′-vinyl-biaryl-2-imines as substrates and in situ formed [CuI/(Ph-BPE)] as the catalyst enables the synthesis of 7-membered bridged...
Supported σ-Complexes of Li‒C Bonds from Coordination of Monomeric Molecules of LiCH3, LiCH2CH3 and LiC6H5 to MoMo Bonds
LiCH3 and LiCH2CH3 react with complex [Mo2(H)2(μ-AdDipp2)2(thf)2] (1 thf) with coordination of two molecules of LiCH2R (R=H,CH3) and formation of complexes [Mo2{μ-HLi(thf)CH2R}2(AdDipp2)2], 5 LiCH3 and 5 LiCH2CH3 , respectively (AdDipp2=HC(NDipp)2; Dipp=2,6-iPr2C6H3 ;...
