Abstract
The catalytic cross coupling of N-heteroaryl electrophiles is a powerful strategy for accessing functionalized ring systems. This study explores the reactivity of [Ni(diphosphine)] complexes with 3-iodopyridine. When the diphosphine ligand features a pendent borane moiety, oxidative addition occurs, leading to the formation of a stable dimeric {Ni}2 species having dative B–N interactions. These findings are contrasted against an n-alkyl containing ligand analogue, highlighting a secondary coordination sphere effect.
期刊介绍:
Organometallics is the flagship journal of organometallic chemistry and records progress in one of the most active fields of science, bridging organic and inorganic chemistry. The journal publishes Articles, Communications, Reviews, and Tutorials (instructional overviews) that depict research on the synthesis, structure, bonding, chemical reactivity, and reaction mechanisms for a variety of applications, including catalyst design and catalytic processes; main-group, transition-metal, and lanthanide and actinide metal chemistry; synthetic aspects of polymer science and materials science; and bioorganometallic chemistry.
