Three aluminium alkyl complexes, [κ2-{ImRNP(Ph)NDipp}AlMe2] (2a–2c), supported by unsymmetrical imino-phosphanamide were synthesised and utilised as competent precatalysts for the hydroamination of carbodiimides under ambient conditions.

Catalytic chemo-selective reduction of tert-amides with pinacolborane (HBpin) to furnish the corresponding tert-amines using an Earth-abundant Al complex under solvent-free, base-free and mild conditions is reported.

The synthesis, characterization, and catalytic application of six aluminum alkyl complexes supported by various imino-phosphanamidinate chalcogenide ligands are described. Six different unsymmetrical imino-phosphanamidinate chalcogenide ligands [NHIRP(Ph)(E)NH-Dipp] [R = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (Dipp),...

A cesium imino-phosphanamidinate, [{NHIDippP(Ph)NDipp}Cs] enabling efficient ring-opening (co)polymerization of rac-LA and ε-CL is disclosed. Owing to the highly controlled polymerization, precise di-block copolymers (PLA-b-PCL) with different block lengths can be...
