Dilithium amides have been developed as a bespoke and general ligand for iron-catalyzed Kumada–Tamao–Corriu cross-coupling reactions, their design taking inspiration from previous mechanistic and structural studies. They allow for the cross-coupling of alkyl Grignard reagents with sp2-hybridized electrophiles as well as aryl Grignard reagents with sp3-hybridized electrophiles. This represents a rare

An iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between alkylhalides and arylboronic esters was developed that does not involve activation of the boronic ester with alkyllithium reagents nor requires magnesium additives. A combination of experimental and theoretical investigations revealed that lithium amide bases coupled with iron complexes containing deprotonated cyanobis(oxazoline) ligands were best
The first iron-catalysed aluminium-variant Negishi coupling: critical effect of co-existing salts on the dynamic equilibrium of arylaluminium species and their reactivity
The first example of an iron-catalysed Negishi coupling between arylaluminium reagents and alkyl halides illustrates that the co-existing salts highly influence the dynamic equilibrium of the organoaluminium species, and have a critical effect on the reactivity and selectivity of the coupling reaction.
Efficient cross-coupling of aryl Grignard reagents with alkyl halides by recyclable ionic iron(iii) complexes bearing a bis(phenol)-functionalized benzimidazolium cation
designed and used to prepare ionic iron(III) complexes of the type [H3L][FeX4] (X = Cl, 2; X = Br, 3). Both 2 and 3 were characterized by elemental analysis, Raman spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. The catalytic performances of 2 and 3 in cross-coupling reactions using arylGrignardreagents with primary and secondary alkyl halides bearing β-hydrogens were
