Reactions of tantallacarborane methyl complexes ([η1:η5-(Me2NCH2CH2)C2B9H10]TaMe3 (1) and [η1:η5-(MeOCH2CH2)C2B9H10]TaMe3 (8)) with alkyl isonitriles have been studied. Complex 1 reacted with 1 eq
The complex [OsCp{κ3-P,C,C-PiPr2[C(CH3)CH2]}(CH3CN)]PF6 (1) reacts with (2-pyridyl)methylenecyclopropane, at room temperature, to give initially the cyclobutylidene derivative [Os(η5-C5H5)(CC
This paper describes a cooperative iron–thiolate catalyst Cp*Fe(1,2-Ph2PC6H4S)(NCMe) (Cp*– = C5Me5–, [1(NCMe)]) for regioselective hydroboration of aryl epoxide by pinacolborane (HBpin). The critica
New experimental findings suggest partial revision of the currently accepted mechanism of the carbonyl hydrosilylation catalyzed by the iridium(III) pincer complex introduced by Brookhart. Employing
Selective B–O–Si bond formation was achieved in the reaction of bisboryloxide O(Bpin)2 (pin = (OCMe2)2)/boroxine (MeBO)3 system with tertiary silane R3SiH in the presence of stoichiometric water and
