The present review “Iron Catalysis in Organic Synthesis” covers the literature until the end of
June 2014 and represents a comprehensive update of a previous article published by Bolm …

Transition metal-catalysed carbene-and nitrene transfer to the C1-building blocks carbon
monoxide and isocyanides provides heteroallenes (ie ketenes, isocyanates, ketenimines …

Isocyanides are diverse C1 building blocks considering their potential to react with
nucleophiles, electrophiles, and radicals. Therefore, perhaps not surprisingly, isocyanides …

β-Diketiminates are widely used supporting ligands for building a range of metal complexes
with different oxidation states, structures, and reactivities. This Perspective summarizes the …

Although β-diketiminate complexes have been widely explored in stoichiometric studies,
their use as catalysts is largely underdeveloped. With growing interest in the catalytic activity …

Iron‐catalyzed hydroboration (HB) of alkenes and alkynes is reported. A simple change in
ligand structure leads to an extensive change in catalyst activity. Reactions proceed …

This study provides atomistic insights into the interface between a single-site catalyst and a
transition metal chalcogenide support and reveals that peak catalytic activity occurs when …

Enforcing unusually low coordination numbers on transition metals with sterically
demanding ligands has long been an area of interest for chemists. Historically, the synthesis …

Several metalloenzymes, including [FeFe]-hydrogenase, employ cofactors wherein multiple
metal atoms work together with surrounding ligands that mediate heterolytic and concerted …

Dehydrocoupling of phosphine-and amine-boranes is reported using an iron (II) β-
diketiminate complex. Dehydrocoupling of amine-boranes is far more facile than the …
