Application

Hydrosilylation Catalysts

Catalyst used for many organic reactions including:
  • Chemoselective allylic alkylations
  • Stoichiometric activation of Si-H bonds and hydrosilylations
  • Inter- and intramolecular hydroacylation of alkenes along with a cocatalyst
  • Polymerization of diorganostannanes
Useful catalyst for the efficient cross-coupling of activated alkenyl tosylates with arylboronic acids. Also used to catalyze the cleavage of allyl phenolic ethers to phenols with DABCO.

[Structure: see text] 2-morpholin-4-yl-4-oxo-4H-chromen-8-yl 2,2,2-trifluoromethanesulfonate is a key intermediate for the synthesis of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) inhibitor 8-dibenzothiophen-4-yl-2-morpholin-4-yl-chromen-4-one (NU7441). Two improved methods for the synthesis of this triflate have been developed: (A) in 35% overall yield, through modification

Transition metal-catalyzed cycloaddition reactions represent powerful methods for the construction of complex polycyclic systems. We have developed a new intermolecular metal-catalyzed [4 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of heteroatom-tethered enyne derivatives with 1,3-butadiene. This study demonstrates that excellent selectivity can
