An efficient and convenient strategy for Ir-catalyzed selective B(3)-amination of o-carboranes with amines via acceptorless BH/NH dehydrocoupling was developed, affording a series of B(3)-aminated-o-carboranes in moderate to high isolated yields with H gas as a sole by-product. Such an oxidant-free system endues the protocol sustainability, atom-economy and environmental friendliness. A reaction mechanism via an Ir(I)-Ir(III)-Ir(I) catalytic cycle involving oxidative addition, dehydrogenation and reductive elimination was proposed.
开发了一种高效便捷的策略,通过无受体的BH/NH脱氢偶联反应,实现铱催化邻碳硼烷与胺的选择性B(3)-胺化反应,以氢气作为唯一副产物,中等至较高的分离产率得到一系列B(3)-胺化邻碳硼烷。这种无氧化剂体系赋予该方法可持续性、原子经济性和环境友好性。提出了一种通过Ir(I)-Ir(III)-Ir(I)催化循环的反应机理,涉及氧化加成、脱氢和还原消除。
