For the first time, Pd6P has been synthesised using a simple, straightforward and one-pot method i.e., thermolysis of a Pd(II) complex of a bidentate (P, N) organophosphorus ligand (anthracene-9-yl-CH=N-CH2CH2-PPh2). The...

During last two decades, researchers have employed organochalcogen compounds as ligands for the development of pre‐formed chalcogen ligated molecular complexes. During 2013–2020, various chalcogen containing homogenous catalytic systems for Suzuki Miyaura cross‐coupling reaction have been synthesized. The review provides insights into the synthetic methodologies for the preparation of organochalcogen ligands and their transition metal complexes. Another central aspect discussed is the application of such catalytic systems in Suzuki Miyaura coupling. Rationalization about the effect of temperature, substrate scope, organoborane derivatives and aryl halides employed has been elaborated. Effect of binding mode, ligand framework, chalcogen donor atom, metal and many other aspects that influence the catalytic potential of various systems have also been covered. Various other aspects such as green catalysis, use of non‐conventional energy sources have also been analyzed.

Suzuki Miyaura cross coupling (SMC) is an extremely useful reaction in organic syntheses. During last two decades, many researchers across the world have employed organochalcogen compounds in various ways for...

Schiff base containing selenium donor site are emerging as a prominent class of ligands used for homogeneous catalysis. Such ligands are designed using various routes. However, the most frequently utilized...

Anthracene-based ligand L1 comprising an imine functionality and a tellurium (Te) donor moiety has been prepared. This ligand L1 has been characterized using 1H, 13C as well as 125Te NMR...
