The cationic complex [Ru(salen)(NO)H2O]SbF6 is intrinsically a powerful catalyst for the Mukaiyama crossed-aldol reaction at 25°C in nitromethane solutions and at very low catalyst loadings but, for some reactions, electron transferfrom the silylenolether to the ruthenium catalyst can occur which leads to catalyst deactivation.
new, simple and high-yield synthesis of a salt-free samarium(II) triflate, [Sm(OTf)2(DME)2] is described. In stoichiometric amounts this derivative mediates typical samarium (II) coupling reactions such as pinacolisation, dimerisation of imines and Barbier-type reactions. It can also acts as a precatalyst for Mukaiyama aldol and Michael reactions and Diels-Alder reactions.
