Abstract The pentamethylcyclopentadienyl N‐heterocyclic carbene nickel complex [Ni(η 5 ‐C 5 Me 5 )Cl(IMes)] (IMes = 1,3‐dimesitylimidazol‐2‐ylidene) efficiently catalyses the anti‐Markovnikov hydroboration of alkenes with catecholborane in the presence of a catalytic amount of potassium tert…
Abstract The CMD/AMLA mechanisms of cyclopalladation and the parent fictitious but challenging cyclonickelation of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine have been investigated by joint DFT-D and DLPNO-CCSD(T) methods assisted by QTAIM-based noncovalent interaction plots (NCI plots) and interacting quantum atoms…
Abstract Two new trimetallic Cr‐Pd hemichelates containing a fluorenyl moiety and two trans arene‐bound Cr(CO)3 moieties were synthesized and fully characterized. Their molecular structures obtained by X‐ray diffraction analysis do not show major differences – in interatomic bond lengths within…
CHAPTER 27 Noncovalent Interactions in Key Metal-centred Catalytic Intermediates: Structure–Electronic Relationship Mustapha Hamdaoui and Jean-Pierre Djukic This chapter covers the most recent advances in investigations of the most critical intermediates in transition metal-promoted processes…
