Abstract
The C–C activation of three substituted vinylcyclobutanes by [(IPr)Ni(0)] (IPr = ((1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) complexes was evaluated. Both 1,2-dicyclobutylethylene and β-caryophyllene underwent oxidative ring-opening with [(IPr)Ni(0)] to furnish isolable 7-membered alkyl, allyl-metallacycles at ambient temperature. In contrast, a derivative of β-caryophyllene bearing terminal alkenes resulted in formation of an isolable nickel bis(olefin) complex that exhibited only partial conversion to the metallacycle upon heating to 80 °C.
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.
