Rh2(esp)2: An Efficient Catalyst for O–H Insertion Reactions of Carboxylic Acids into Acceptor/Acceptor Diazo Compounds (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 13/2016)

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: The cover picture shows O–H insertion reactions of carboxylic acids into highly stabilized acceptor/acceptor diazo compounds. Rh2(esp)2 acts as an effective catalyst for the decomposition of these stable diazo compounds to form a reactive rhodium carbenoid. The carboxylic acid comes into contact with the reactive rhodium carbenoid and undergoes an O–H insertion reaction to release the Rh catalyst. Rh2(esp)2 now completes its catalytic cycle and is available for the decomposition of another diazo molecule. Details are discussed in the article by I. Sharma et al. on p. 2260 ff.
