In organic chemistry, atoms other than carbon and hydrogen are generally referred to as heteroatoms. The most common heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Now I present to you an article called Visible-Light-Enabled Stereodivergent Synthesis of E- and Z-Configured 1,4-Dienes by Photoredox/Nickel Dual Catalysis, published in 2020, which mentions a compound: 60804-74-2, mainly applied to diene diastereoselective preparation; allylic carbonate vinyl triflate reductive coupling photoredox nickel catalyst; cross-coupling; nickel; photochemistry; reaction mechanisms; stereochemistry, Recommanded Product: Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium bis(hexafluorophosphate).
A stereodivergent reductive coupling reaction between allylic carbonates and vinyl triflates to furnish both E- and Z-configured 1,4-dienes was achieved by visible-light-induced photoredox/nickel dual catalysis. The mild reaction conditions allowed good compatibility of both vinyl triflates and allylic carbonates. Notably, the stereoselectivity of this synergistic cross-electrophile coupling could be tuned by an appropriate photocatalyst with a suitable triplet-state energy, providing a practical and stereodivergent means to alkene synthesis. Preliminary mechanistic studies shed some light on the coupling step as well as the control of the stereoselectivity step.
This literature about this compound(60804-74-2)Recommanded Product: Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium bis(hexafluorophosphate)has given us a lot of inspiration, and I hope that the research on this compound(Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium bis(hexafluorophosphate)) can be further advanced. Maybe we can get more compounds in a similar way.
