Question

Nickel complexes of a pincer nn2 ligand: multiple carbonchloride activation of ch2cl2 and chcl3 leads to selective carboncarbon bond formation

Answer 1

Answer:

Nickel complexes of a pincer NN2 ligand: multiple carbon-chloride activation of CH2Cl2 and CHCl3 leads to selective carbon-carbon bond formation. Csok Z(1), Vechorkin O, Harkins SB, Scopelliti R, Hu X. The reactions are highly selective and lead to the first efficient catalytic coupling of CH2Cl2 with alkyl Grignards.
