  • Rhodium dinaphthocyclooctatetraene complexes: synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity in [5+2] cycloadditions.

    Wender PA, Lesser AB, Sirois LE. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2012; 51 (11): 2736-40

    Rh COT in the act: a Ni(0)-catalyzed [2+2+2+2] cycloaddition provides a high-yielding, scalable synthesis of the ligand dinaphtho[a,e]cyclooctatetraene (dnCOT). dnCOT complexation with Rh(I) gives [Rh(dnCOT)(MeCN)(2)]SbF(6), an excellent catalyst for [5+2] cycloadditions of vinylcyclopropanes and π-systems with impressive functional group compatibility.
