Umpolung Strategy: Advances In Catalytic C-C Bond Formations, Serkan Eymur, Mehmet Göllü, Ci̇hangi̇r Tanyeli̇

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This mini-review examines the recent advances in umpolung strategy, devised originally by Corey and Seebach. Although numerous stoichiometric variants have been published to date, this article covers just the catalytic C-C bond forming reactions due to their major benefits such as atom economy, less pollution, and workable simplicity. In the context of umpolung, the studies are evaluated under 3 main titles: enzyme, N-heterocyclic carbene, and cyanide ion catalyzed reactions. In particular, enzyme and NHC catalyzed reactions mainly involve asymmetric applications.

The cleavage reactions of the dimers [(NHC)PdX_2]_2 with hydrophilic N-donors, L, afforded the mixed-ligand complexes of the type trans-[(NHC)LPdX_2] (X = Cl or Br; NHC = 1,3-dialkylbenzimidazol-2-ylidene (BIm) or bis(imino)acenaphthene-annulated bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (BIAN-IPr); L = diethanolamine (DEA), morpholine (MOR), and 3-pyridinecarboxylic acid (3-PCA)). The new complexes (1--3) were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods and the molecular structure of 1a was determined by X-ray diffraction studies. These complexes were applied in the Suzuki--Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of phenylboronic acid with aryl halides in neat water. The activities of catalysts were monitored by gas chromatography--flame ionization detector and nuclear magnetic resonance. Whereas …
