General description
4,4′,4″-Tri-tert-Butyl-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine is a terpyridine (terpy) ligands that is commonly used in organic synthesis due to its role in coordination chemistry, particularly in the formation of metal complexes such as Zn(II), Cd, and lanthanide-cadmium pentafluorobenzoate complexes.
Application
4,4′,4-Tri-tert-Butyl-2,2′:6′,2-terpyridine can be used as a ligand:
- In the synthesis of methylated alkanes and ketones via Ni-catalyzed methylation of unactivated alkyl halides and acid chlorides.
- In Ni-catalyzed reductive dimerization reaction.
- In allylic defluorinative reductive cross-coupling reaction in the presence of Ni as a catalyst.

The first general method for the reductive dimerization of alkyl halides, alkyl mesylates, alkyl trifluoroacetates, and allylic acetates is reported which proceeds with low catalyst loading (0.5 to 5 mol%), generally high yields (80% ave yield), and good functional-group tolerance.

Methylation of unactivated alkyl halides and acid chlorides under Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling conditions led to efficient formation of methylated alkanes and ketones using methyl p-methyl tosylate as the methylation reagent. Moderate to excellent coupling yields as well as excellent functional

A nickel-catalyzed defluorinative reductive cross-coupling of trifluoromethyl alkenes with epoxides has been developed. Various substituted trifluoromethyl alkenes and epoxides were found to be suitable reaction substrates. This reaction enabled C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond construction through allylic defluorinative cross-coupling of trifluoromethyl alkenes under

The ability of the terpyridine ligand to stabilize alkyl complexes of nickel has been central in obtaining a fundamental understanding of the key processes involved in alkyl-alkyl cross-coupling reactions. Here, mechanistic studies using isotopically labeled (TMEDA)NiMe(2) (TMEDA = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) have

Mechanistic proposals for nickel-catalyzed coupling reactions often invoke five-coordinate alkyl- or aryl-bound Ni(II) and/or high-valent nickel(III) species, but because of their reactive nature, they have been difficult to study and fingerprint. In this work, we invoked the stabilizing properties of
