Reaction of 2-vinylpyrazine with Ru(CO) results in multiple C-H bond activations to afford penta- and octa-ruthenium clusters, Ru(CO)(μ-CHNCH[double bond, length as m-dash]CH)(μ-H) (2) and Ru(CO)(μ-CHNCH[double bond, length as m-dash]C)(μ-H) (3),...

The +5 oxidation state of antimony induced push-pull style intramolecular charge transfer in an elegantly designed axial dimethoxyantimony(V) porphyrin series: SbP(OMe)·PF, SbMP(OMe)·PF, SbDMP(OMe)·PF, SbTMP(OMe)·PF with phenyl (P), 4-methoxyphenyl (MP), 3,5-dimethoxyphenyl...

Cooperative enamine-metal Lewis acid catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool to construct carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond forming reactions. A concise synthetic method for asymmetric synthesis of chromans from cyclohexanones...

A series of meso-substituted with aromatic (=tolyl, pyrenyl, fluorenyl, naphthyl, and triphenylamine) substituents, platinum (Pt), and palladium (Pd) porphyrins have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction...

The formation of enamine from primary arylamines was detected and confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The presence of a radical quencher, e.g., (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxidanyl, was found to be essential for...

A double divergent process has been developed for the reaction of α-enaminones with quinones through facile manipulation of catalyst and additive, leading to structurally completely different products. The two divergent...

A formal [3 + 3] cyclization reaction of diaziridines and quinones has been developed offering 1,3,4-oxadiazinanes in generally high yields (up to 96%). The reaction was catalyzed by Sc(OTf) with...

A series of largely π-extended multichromophoric molecules including cross-conjugated, half cross-conjugated, conjugation-interrupted and linearly conjugated systems were synthesized and characterized. These multichromophoric molecular systems revealed interesting structural-property relationships. Bisporphyrin-fused pentacenes...

Reactions between the π-acidic cyclic trimetallic coinage metal(I) complexes {[Cu(μ-3,5-(CF)pz)], {[Ag(μ-3,5-(CF)pz)], and {[Au(μ-3,5-(CF)pz)] with TTF, DBTTF and BEDT-TTF give rise to a series of coinage metal(I)-based new binary donor-acceptor adducts...

Three asymmetric diosmium(I) carbonyl sawhorse complexes have been prepared by microwave heating. One of these complexes is of the type Os(μ-OCR)(μ-OCR')(CO)L, with two different bridging carboxylate ligands, while the other...
