Dihydropyridines in Organometallic Synthesis. Formation of Pyridine and Dihydropyridine-Stabilized Alkylidene Complexes of Tungsten(0) and Chromium(0) from Fischer Carbene Complexes: Structure and Reactivity
1,2- and 1,4-dihydropyridines react with alkoxycarbene complexes of chromium and tungsten to give, upon an unprecedented hydride transfer, alcohol elimination, and pyridine fixation on the carbene carbon, a new class of air-stable pyridinium ylide complexes. These pyridine-protected alkylidene complexes of chromium(0) and tungsten(0) were fully characterized by X-ray crystallography. In the case of

A variety of organic hydride donors (OHDs) have been tested as reagents for the transfer of hydride to iron formato complexes in the activation and reduction of carbon dioxide. Theoretical calculations show that the selection of OHD and solvent is crucial when planning systems involving OHD cooperativity. Strong consideration is given to the likelihood that metal centers may deactivate formate to hydride
