Gold(I) and Palladium(II) Complexes of 1,3,4-Trisubstituted 1,2,3-Triazol-5-ylidene “Click” Carbenes: Systematic Study of the Electronic and Steric Influence on Catalytic Activity
The synthesis of a small family of six electronically and sterically modified 1,3,4-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene gold(I) chloride complexes is described. Additionally, the corresponding trans-[PdBr2(iPr2-bimy)(1,3,4-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene)] complexes are also generated and used to examine the donor strength of the 1,3,4-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene ligands. All compounds have been characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR and IR spectroscopy, high-resolution electrospray mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS), and elemental analysis. The molecular structures of four of the gold(I) and four of the palladium(II) complexes were determined using X-ray crystallography. Finally, it is demonstrated that these 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene gold(I) chloride complexes (Au(trz)Cl) are able to catalyze the cycloisomerization of 1,6-enynes, in high yield and regioselectivity, as well as the intermolecular direct etherification of allylic alcohols. Exploiting the Au(trz)Cl precatalysts allowed the etherification of allylic alcohols to be carried out under milder conditions, with better yield and regioselectivity than selected commercially available gold(I) catalysts.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 21 November 2013.
All research outputs
#15,285,728
of 22,731,677 outputs
Outputs from Organometallics
#6,102
of 9,567 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#188,864
of 301,953 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Organometallics
#59
of 206 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,731,677 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,567 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 301,953 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 206 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 3rd percentile – i.e., 3% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
