General description

Neocuproine is a heterocyclic organic compoundcommonly utilized as a chelating agent in various transition metal-catalyzedreactions. These include alcohol oxidation, oxidative cleavage of carbon-carbonbonds, C-C bond forming coupling reactions, allylation of carbonyls, alkylzincalkynylations, nickel-mediated decarbonylative cross-couplings,Buchwald–Hartwig-type couplings, and allylic substitution reactions.

Application

Neocuproine can be used as a ligand in the:
  • Preparation of fluorinated metal-organic frameworks (F-MOFs).
  • Regioselective C-H arylation of indoles with phenylboronic acids through an oxidative boron Heck reaction.
  • Allylation reaction of aldehydes with allylboronates in the presence of Zn(OH)2 as a catalyst.
  • Iridium-catalyzed silylation of five-membered heteroarenes to synthesize silylarenes.
