SYNTHESIS AND CATALYTIC APPLICATIONS OF PALLADIUM COMPLEXES BEARING 4,5-DISUBSTITUTED IMIDAZOL-2-YLIDENE LIGANDS
Project no. 21171 · Status: Kapanmış · 2019
Summary
In the present study, the NHC ligands (L1-5) modified with different electronic groups on the 4,5-positions and N atoms of imidazole skeleton, and the corresponding NHC-Pd complexes (C1-6) derived from these ligands were synthesized and characterized. Then, the catalytic activities of these complexes in the ?-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols via hydrogen borrowing strategy for the synthesis of substituted ketones were examined. These complexes were found to be active catalysts for this transformation. As a result of these studies, 12 different branched ketone were synthesized and characterized.
