In the past two decades, NHCs (NHC= N-heterocyclic carbenes) have emerged as one of
the most important classes of ligands in transition metal catalysis. Although historically 5 …

A series of vinyl functionalized 5, 6‐dimethylbenzimidazolium salts are synthesized. All
compounds were fully characterized by elemental analyses, MS, 1H‐NMR, 13C‐NMR, and …

This work deals with the synthesis, spectroscopic studies and catalytic evaluation of the
novel chiral salen (L 1 H 2) and (L 2 H 2) ligands and their chiral boronate [L 1 (B 1-4)] and …

Hydrogen transfer reduction methods are attracting increasing attention from synthetic
chemists in view of their operational simplicity. Therefore, the novel Ni (II) and Fe (II) tetra …

Piano‐stool ([(p‐cymene) Ru (thz) Cl], 2) and six‐coordinated ([Ru (thz) 2 (PPh3) 2], 3)
ruthenium complexes derived from 2‐phenylthiazoline‐4‐carboxylic acid (Hthz, 1) were …

A one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of 5-acetyl-1, 3-dibenzyl-5-
(ethoxycarbonyl)-3, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyrimidinium nitrate (yield 78%) by reacting …

Four NNN tridentate ligands L1–L4 containing 2‐methoxypyridylmethene or 2‐
hydroxypyridylmethene fragment were synthesized and introduced to ruthenium centers …

In this paper, the reaction of [Ir (COD) Cl] 2 with in situ prepared Ag–N-heterocyclic carbene
(NHC) complexes yields a series of [IrCl (COD)(NHC)] complexes. All compounds were fully …

In this paper we examined the catalytic activity of in situ prepared bidentate azolium
salt/[RhCl (COD)] 2 catalyst system in the transfer hydrogenation of imines with i-propanol to …
