Reductive heterocoupling mediated by Cp*2U(2,2'-bpy)
Abstract
Trivalent Cp*(2)U(2,2'-bpy) (2) (Cp* = C(5)Me(5), 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), which has a monoanionic bipyridine, was treated with p-tolualdehyde (a), furfuraldehyde (b), acetone (c), and benzophenone (d). Reduction of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O bond followed by radical coupling with bipyridine forms the U(iv) derivatives [Cp*(2)U(2,2'-bpy)(OCRR')] (3a-d).
