Hydrogen-Bonding Controlled Nickel-Catalyzed Regioselective Cyclotrimerization of Terminal Alkynes

Kai Yang et al.

Summary: In this study, a hydrogen-bonding controlled nickel-catalyzed regioselective cyclotrimerization of terminal alkynes was reported, yielding 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenes with high regioselectivities. The method features a low-cost catalyst, mild reaction conditions, and excellent functional group compatibility. The Ni-B(OH)(2) complex generated in situ from NiCl2·DME and tetrahydroxydiboron may act as an active catalyst for this transformation.

Iron-Catalyzed Trimerization of Terminal Alkynes Enabled by Pyrimidinediimine Ligands: A Regioselective Method for the Synthesis of 1,3,5-Substituted Arenes

Julianna S. Doll et al.

Summary: The development of pyrimidine-based analogues of PDI iron complexes has enabled a functional-group-tolerant methodology for the catalytic trimerization of terminal aliphatic alkynes, leading to 1,3,5-substituted arenes as the main products. The enhanced pi-acidity of the pyrimidine ring, combined with the hemilability of the imine groups coordinated to the iron center, plays a key role in facilitating this transformation. The catalytic reaction proceeds via a 1,3-substituted metallacycle, explaining the observed 1,3,5-regioselectivity.
