Abstract

The recent developments in cobalt catalysis are compiled in this review covering the years 2000 through 2007. Special focus is directed towards cobalt-catalysed ring-formation reactions as well as towards cobalt-catalysed (cross-) coupling reactions and synthetically useful applications thereof in the synthesis of acyclic compounds.

2.6 Eight-Membered-Ring Formation

2.7 Ten-Membered-Ring Formation

3 Cobalt-Catalysed Synthesis of Acyclic Compounds

3.1 Coupling Reactions between Alkenes and Alkynes

3.2 Cross-Coupling Reactions

3.3 Cobalt-Catalysed Coupling Reactions Using Grignard Reagents

3.4 Hydrocyanation, Hydrophosphination, Hydrosilylation and Hydrovinylation Reactions
