Mono- and polynuclear complexes containing 3-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-1-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)imidazolylidene (L), [NiL2](PF6)2 (2), [CoL2](PF6)3 (3), [PtLCl](PF6) (4), [PdAgL2](PF6)3 (5), [PdCuL2](PF6)3 (6), [Pd2L2Cl2](PF6)2 (7), and [Pd3L2Cl4](PF6)2 (8) have been prepared and fully characterized by NMR, ESI-MS spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. In complexes 2–4, the ligand binds to metals in a pincer NNC fashion with the pyridine group uncoordinated. Complexes 5 and 6 are isostructural to each other in which the palladium ions are surrounded by two pyridines and two imidazolylidenes and Ag(I) or Cu(I) is coordinated by two 1,10-phenanthroline moieties. In the trinuclear palladium complex 8, one palladium ion has an identical coordination mode as in 5 and 6, and the other two palladium ions are bonded to the 1,10-phenanthroline. Complex 6 exhibits excellent catalytic activity for the tandem click/Sonogashira reaction of 1-(bromomethyl)-4-iodobenzene, NaN3, and ethynylbenzene in which three C–N bonds and one C–C bond are formed in a single flask.
Multi-component reaction for the preparation of 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles by in-situ generation of azides and nickel-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition
An efficient one-pot procedure combining bromide conversion into azide followed by NiAAC for the preparation of 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles has been developed. This procedure prevents the use of isolated azides, which are insufficiently commercially available and could be potentially unstable and difficult to handle. Moreover, this one-pot method tolerates a broad range of functional moieties
A magnetically separable ruthenium catalyst was synthesized through immobilizing a pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ruthenium complex on iron oxide nanoparticles. The catalyst is highly active and selective for the synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-trizoles via cycloaddition of alkynes and organic azides and can be recycled at least 5 times.
