Cu/NHC Complexes with 4-Sulfanyl- and 4-Sulfonylimidazole in Carboxylation Reactions
摘要
Abstract
The metalation of 1,3-diaryl-4-(arylsulfanyl)imidazolium and 1,3-diaryl-4-(arylsulfonyl)imidazolium chlorides with copper(I) oxide has been studied. The resulting Cu/NHC complexes have been studied as catalysts for the carboxylation of phenylacetylene, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole. The main patterns of this reaction behavior and the dependence of the catalysis efficiency on the NHC structure were revealed.
