Iron-Based Catalyst for Borylation of Unactivated Alkyl Halides without Using Highly Basic Organometallic Reagents
Siddiqui, Sheema,Bhawar, Ramesh,Geetharani
, p. 1948 - 1954 (2021/01/14)
The mild borylation of alkyl bromides and chlorides with bis(neopentylglycolato)diborane (B2neop2) mediated by iron-bis amide is described. The reaction proceeds with a broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility. Moreover, sufficient ca
NHC-copper hydrides as chemoselective reducing agents: Catalytic reduction of alkynes, alkyl triflates, and alkyl halides
Cox, Nick,Dang, Hester,Whittaker, Aaron M.,Lalic, Gojko
, p. 4219 - 4231 (2014/06/09)
The NHC-copper-catalyzed Z-selective semi-reduction of terminal and internal alkynes, as well as the NHC-copper-catalyzed reduction of primary alkyl triflates and primary and secondary alkyl iodides and bromides are described. The high chemoselectivity demonstrated in these examples illustrates the mild nature of copper hydride complexes as reducing agents, which have applications in synthetic chemistry beyond their traditional role in the reduction of activated alkenes and carbonyl compounds.
Silver-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of alkyl bromides with alkyl or aryl Grignard reagents

Treatment of secondary or tertiary alkyl bromides with alkyl Grignard reagents in the presence of catalytic amounts of silver bromide and potassium fluoride in CH2Cl2 afforded the corresponding cross-coupling products in reasonable yields. Moreover, silver showed catalytic activity for the cross-coupling reactions of alkyl bromides with aryl Grignard reagents.
