A new aminopyridine ligand derived from bipiperidine (the product of full reduction of bipyridine, bipy) coordinates to iron(II) in a cis-α fashion, yielding a new selective catalyst for olefin epoxidation with H(2)O(2) under limiting substrate conditions.

Group 4 metallocenes are competent catalysts for the oligomerization of higher α-olefins. Among the many chemical and physical variables of importance in the process, one is the choice of cocatalyst (activator). The impact of various activators on the performance of a representative catalyst, (nBuCp)ZrCl, in the oligomerization of 1-octene was thoroughly investigated; in particular, the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the oligomers was determined by means of high-resolution high performance liquid chromatography (HR-HPLC).

The homopolymerization of norbornene and the copolymerization of norbornene and ethylene were carried out using the neutral -sulfonate--diimine nickel catalyst . The neutral -sulfonate--diimine catalyst is highly active in the homopolymerization of norbornene, producing vinyl-addition polynorbornene (PNB) with a high molecular weight. The copolymerization of norbornene (NB) and ethylene (E) using the catalyst was also investigated.

Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes is an efficient strategy for the synthesis of useful organosilicon compounds. However, extensive efforts have been dedicated to only achieving achiral molecules. Herein, a highly regio- and enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes with hydrosilanes is reported for the first time, providing access to axially chiral alkenes in good to excellent yields with 87-98% ee.

A three-component cascade boronation-dearomatization reaction of alkenes, a diboron compound, and a pyridinium salt is diclosed, affording chiral boron-containing 1,4-dihyropyridines in high yields (≤98%) and diastereoselectivity (≤10:1 dr), along with excellent enantioselectivity (typically >99% ee). The catalytic system performs efficiently at low catalyst loadings (1 mol %) and was tested with >50 examples, including some biologically active molecules.

An anaerobic 1,2-/1,3-hydroxytrifluoromethylation of unactivated alkenes is described. This reaction proceeds in mild and environmentally friendly conditions without photocatalyst and metal catalyst, allowing access to a wide range of β- and γ-trifluoromethyl alcohols. Preliminary mechanistic investigations indicate that the accomplishment of this protocol relies on the dual functionality of the photoexcited triplet nitroarenes, which serve as the oxygen atom source and enable the single-electron transfer (SET) process with CFSONa.
