Metal carbenoids such as lithium or Simmons–Smith-type reagents are widely used in
organic synthesis, particularly in cyclopropanation and homologation reactions. These …

Derived from the cyclic secondary amine 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine [TMP (H)] by
removal of its nitrogen-attached hydrogen atom, the TMP anion 1 has had a 40 year career …

The direct deprotonation of the chiral nitrogen ligands (R, R)-TECDA (2) and (R, R)-
TEMCDA (6) with tert-butyllithium to highly reactive building blocks is reported. The …

Abstract The reaction of Pr (AlMe4) 3 with 1, 3, 5‐trimethyl‐1, 3, 5‐triazacyclohexane
(TMTAC) leads to the formation of two isomeric products by C–H activation of the AlMe4 …

The reactions of 1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-triazacyclohexane, TMTAC, with methyllithium
(MeLi) in the absence or presence of the Lewis acid trimethylaluminum (AlMe3) give …

The structure of 1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-triaza-cyclohexane (TMTAC) was determined by
single crystal X-ray diffraction and compared with earlier gas-phase data. It shows a …

Abstract The chiral diamine (1R, 2R)‐N, N, N′, N′‐tetramethylcyclohexane‐1, 2‐diamine
[(R, R)‐TMCDA, 3] has been selectively deprotonated at one of its methyl groups by a series …

The reaction of 2-lithio-1, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 3, 5-triazacyclohexane with YCp2Cl leads to the
formation of a donor-functionalised mono-anionic amide ligand, 1, 3, 5-trimethyl-2 …

Diastereoselective ortho‐lithiation of ferrocenes is a principal strategy for the synthesis of
chiral ferrocene ligands. Dilithiation of (R)‐1‐(2‐bromophenyl)‐1‐ferrocenyl‐N, N …
