    Cobalt(III)-Catalyzed C–H Alkynylation with Bromoalkynes under Mild Conditions

    No full text
    Expedient cobalt-catalyzed C-H alkynylation was achieved under exceedingly mild reaction conditions. Thus, chelation-assisted direct alkynylations of heteroarenes occurred with 1-bromoalkynes and ample substrate scope. The optimized catalytic system allowed for step-economical C-H functionalizations with a mild base K2CO3 at reaction temperatures as low as 25 degrees C

    Manganese-Catalyzed C−H Alkynylation: Expedient Peptide Synthesis and Modification

    No full text
    Manganese(I)-catalyzed C-H alkynylations with organic halides occurred with unparalleled substrate scope, and thus enabled step-economical C-H functionalizations with silyl, aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl haloalkynes. The versatility of the manganese(I) catalysis manifold enabled C-H couplings with haloalkynes featuring, among others, fluorescent labels, steroids, and amino acids, thereby setting the stage for peptide ligation as well as the efficient molecular assembly of acyclic and cyclic peptides. A plausible catalytic cycle was proposed

    CH Alkenylations with Alkenyl Acetates, Phosphates, Carbonates, and Carbamates by Cobalt Catalysis at 23 degrees C

    Inexpensive cobalt catalysts with N-heterocyclic carbene ligands enable direct arene alkenylations with easily accessible alkenyl acetates through regioselective CH/CO functionalizations in a stereoconvergent fashion. The versatile cobalt catalyst was broadly applicable and thus also allowed for the efficient conversion of alkenyl phosphates, carbonates, and carbamates at ambient temperature.European Research Council under the European Community [307535
