A facile IrIII-catalyzed benzylicalkylation of arenes with alcohols has been accomplished via borrowing hydrogen (BH) pathways, and the newly developed spirocyclic NHC IrIII pincer complex (Cat A) serves as an efficient catalyst for this atom-economical and greener transformation. Some drug or bioactive molecules and functional material templates can be easily constructed by this strategy.
通过借氢 (BH) 途径实现了一种简单的 Ir III催化的芳烃与醇的苄基烷基化,新开发的螺环 NHC Ir III钳形配合物 (Cat A) 可作为这种原子经济和绿色转化的有效催化剂. 一些药物或生物活性分子和功能材料模板可以通过这种策略轻松构建。
