METHOD FOR PRODUCING POLYNUCLEAR METAL CLUSTER
-
Paragraph 0107, (2020/10/31)
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a method for producing a polynuclear metal cluster that can control the number of nuclei. SOLUTION: A method for producing a polynuclear metal cluster includes a reductive reaction of reducing a metal complex as a starting material with a silicon compound (1), where the polynuclear metal cluster is an oxygen-crosslinked polynuclear metal cluster (where n is 1 or 2, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are the same or different to represent a hydrogen atom or a C1-4 alkyl group).

A new method for titanium-catalyzed reductive umpolung reactions is reported that overcomes the traditional requirement for a stoichiometric metallic reductant. With N,N′-disilylated tetramethyldihydropyrazine as a potent organic reducing agent, reductive carbonyl-nitrile, enone-acrylonitrile and pinacol coupling reactions can be achieved in good yields and stereoselectivities. [Cp2TiI2] is a superior catalyst to [Cp2TiCl2], which is rationalized by a faster generation of the active catalyst [Cp2TiI]. A mechanism is proposed that is in agreement with the experimental results. Replacing zinc: A protocol for titanium(III)-catalyzed reductive umpolung reactions is presented that enables the title reactions in the presence of an N,N′-disilylated tetramethyldihydropyrazine as an organic sacrificial reducing agent. It is successfully applied to carbonyl-nitrile, enone-acrylonitrile and pinacol coupling reactions. A remarkable effect of the titanocene counterion renders titanocene diiodide a superior catalyst.
