  • chiral at metal Iridium Complex for efficient enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of ketones
    Chemical Communications, 2016
    Co-Authors: Cheng Tian, Lei Gong, Eric Meggers
    Abstract:

    A bis-cyclometalated Iridium(III) Complex with metal-centered chirality catalyzes the enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of ketones with high enantioselectivities at low catalyst loadings down to 0.002 mol%. Importantly, the rate of catalysis and enantioselectivity are markedly improved in the presence of a pyrazole co-ligand. The reaction is proposed to proceed via an Iridium-hydride intermediate exploiting metal–ligand cooperativity (bifunctional catalysis).

  • asymmetric radical radical cross coupling through visible light activated Iridium catalysis
    Angewandte Chemie, 2016
    Co-Authors: Chuanyong Wang, Klaus Harms, Eric Meggers, Jie Qin, Xiaodong Shen, Radostan Riedel
    Abstract:

    Combining single electron transfer between a donor substrate and a catalyst-activated acceptor substrate with a stereocontrolled radical–radical recombination enables the visible-light-driven catalytic enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols from trifluoromethyl ketones and tertiary amines. With a chiral Iridium Complex acting as both a Lewis acid and a photoredox catalyst, enantioselectivities of up to 99 % ee were achieved. A quantum yield of <1 supports the proposed catalytic cycle in which at least one photon is needed for each asymmetric CC bond formation mediated by single electron transfer.

  • enantioselective catalytic trichloromethylation through visible light activated photoredox catalysis with a chiral Iridium Complex
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2015
    Co-Authors: Chuanyong Wang, Klaus Harms, Eric Meggers
    Abstract:

    An enantioselective, catalytic trichloromethylation of 2-acyl imidazoles and 2-acylpyridines is reported. Several products are formed with enantiomeric excess of ≥99%. In this system, a chiral Iridium Complex serves a dual function, as a catalytically active chiral Lewis acid and simultaneously as a precursor for an in situ assembled visible-light-triggered photoredox catalyst.

  • asymmetric catalysis with an inert chiral at metal Iridium Complex
    ChemInform, 2014
    Co-Authors: Liangan Chen, Weici Xu, Biao Huang, Lun Wang, Jianwei Xi, Klaus Harms, Lei Gong, Eric Meggers
    Abstract:

    Novel chiral Iridium Complexes are synthesized and used as a catalyst for the asymmetric hydrogenation reaction of β,β-disubstituted nitroolefins.

  • asymmetric catalysis with an inert chiral at metal Iridium Complex
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2013
    Co-Authors: Liangan Chen, Weici Xu, Biao Huang, Lun Wang, Jianwei Xi, Klaus Harms, Lei Gong, Eric Meggers
    Abstract:

    The development of a chiral-at-metal Iridium(III) Complex for the highly efficient catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of β,β′-disubstituted nitroalkenes is reported. Catalysis by this inert, rigid metal Complex does not involve any direct metal coordination but operates exclusively through weak interactions with functional groups properly arranged in the ligand sphere of the Iridium Complex. Although the Iridium Complex relies only on the formation of three hydrogen bonds, it exceeds the performance of most organocatalysts with respect to enantiomeric excess (up to 99% ee) and catalyst loading (down to 0.1 mol %). This work hints at an advantage of structurally complicated rigid scaffolds for non-covalent catalysis, which especially relies on conformationally constrained cooperative interactions between the catalyst and substrates.

  • an Iridium iii iv v redox series featuring a terminal imido Complex with triplet ground state
    Chemical Science, 2018
    Co-Authors: Markus Kinauer, Heiko Bamberger, Christian Volkmann, Martin Diefenbach, Bas De Bruin, Serhiy Demeshko, Christian Wurtele, Joris Van Slageren, Edward J Reijerse, Max C Holthausen
    Abstract:

    The Iridium(III/IV/V) imido redox series [Ir(NtBu){N(CHCHPtBu2)2}]0/+/2+ was synthesized and examined spectroscopically, magnetically, crystallographically and computationally. The monocationic Iridium(IV) imide exhibits an electronic doublet ground state with considerable ‘imidyl’ character as a result of covalent Ir–NtBu bonding. Reduction gives the neutral imide [Ir(NtBu){N(CHCHPtBu2)2}] as the first example of an Iridium Complex with a triplet ground state. Its reactivity with respect to nitrene transfer to selected electrophiles (CO2) and nucleophiles (PMe3), respectively, is reported.
