Reactivity of (bi-Oxazoline)organonickel Complexes and Revision of a Catalytic Mechanism

Bi-Oxazoline (biOx) has emerged as an effective ligand framework for promoting nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling, cross-electrophile coupling, and photoredox-nickel dual catalytic reactions. This report fills the knowledge gap of the organometallic reactivity of (biOx)Ni complexes, including catalyst reduction, oxidative electrophile activation, radical capture, and reductive elimination. The biOx ligand displays no redox activity in (biOx)Ni(I) complexes, in contrast to other chelating imine and oxazoline ligands. The lack of ligand redox activity results in more negative reduction potentials of (biOx)Ni(II) complexes and accounts for the inability of zinc and manganese to reduce (biOx)Ni(II) species. On the basis of these results, we revise the formerly proposed “sequential reduction” mechanism of a (biOx)Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reaction by excluding catalyst reduction steps.

Bis(bipyridine) ruthenium(ii) bis(phosphido) metalloligand: Synthesis of heterometallic complexes and application to catalytic (E)-selective alkyne semi-hydrogenation

The first phosphido derivative of the bis(bipyridine) ruthenium(ii) fragment, cis-[(bpy)2Ru(PPh2)2] ([RuP2]), has been developed and applied as a P-donor metalloligand to form new Ru-Rh, Ru-Ir and Ru2Cu2 heterometallic complexes. The Ru-Ir hydride complex [([RuP2])IrH(NCMe)3][BF4]2 exhibits significant catalytic activity for (E)-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes.

Recyclable cobalt(0) nanoparticle catalysts for hydrogenations

The search for new hydrogenation catalysts that replace noble metals is largely driven by sustainability concerns and the distinct mechanistic features of 3d transition metals. Several combinations of cobalt precursors and specific ligands in the presence of reductants or under high-thermal conditions were reported to provide active hydrogenation catalysts. This study reports a new method of preparation of small, monodisperse Co(0) nanoparticles (3-4 nm) from the reduction of commercial CoCl2 in the absence of ligands or surfactants. High catalytic activity was observed in hydrogenations of alkenes, alkynes, imines, and heteroarenes (2-20 bar H2). The magnetic properties enabled catalyst separation and multiple recyclings.
