Organic letters, 15(5), 1144-1147 (2013-02-16)
The first α-alkylation of unactivated amides with primary alcohols is described. An effective and robust iridium pincer complex has been developed for selective α-alkylation of tertiary and secondary acetamides involving a "borrowing hydrogen" methodology. The method is compatible with alcohols
Yuyang Zhou et al.
Chemical communications (Cambridge, England), 49(31), 3230-3232 (2013-03-14)
Five iridium(III) complexes with two N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands and an ancillary ligand have been designed and successfully synthesized. With multicolor photoluminescence and low toxicity, these carbene complexes were tested, for the first time, as living cell imaging reagents and
José Luis Núñez-Rico et al.
Organic letters, 15(8), 2066-2069 (2013-04-12)
Iridium(I) complexes of enantiomerically pure phosphine-phosphite ligands ([Ir(Cl)(cod)(P-OP)]) efficiently catalyze the enantioselective hydrogenation of diverse C═N-containing heterocyclic compounds (benzoxazines, benzoxazinones, benzothiazinones, and quinoxalinones; 25 examples, up to 99% ee). A substrate-to-catalyst ratio as high as 2000:1 was reached.
