A Dimeric Magnesium(I) Compound as a Facile Two‐Center/Two‐Electron Reductant

Abstract: The odd couple: A dimeric magnesium(I) complex acts as a facile and selective two-center/two-electron reductant towards a series of unsaturated substrates (see scheme; Ar = 2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3), Ad = 1-adamantyl). The novel reduced or reductively coupled products obtained from these reductions suggest that magnesium(I) compounds may find wide use in organic and organometallic syntheses.

“…Statistical analysis was performed in accordance with the Cochrane Handbook for Statistical Review of Interventions. 27,28 The DerSimonian and Laird random effect 29 was chosen, because variation between studies' populations and high heterogeneity in BP analysis was observed. A P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.…”

“…Remarkably,s tarting from this ligand platformi tw as also possible to access dimeric low-oxidation-state magnesium(I) complexes,w hich turned out to be versatile two-center two-electron reducinga gents. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] This rising interest also initiated research into other promising ligand platforms that mimic the chelating ability of the ubiquitous NacNacl igand, in particular the feature that two imine nitrogena toms functiona sL ewis donors to ac oordinating metal ion to form as ix-membered metallaheterocycle.E xamples are the bis(2-pyridyl)methane ligand system and its N, P, and As bridged derivatives with benzo-fused imine moieties (Scheme 2, left). [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] Furthermore, an ew ligand class arose when the 2-pyridyl residues were exchanged forb enzannulated oxazoline sidearms.…”
