Abstract
The transformation of non-activated starting materials with a readily accessible and easy to handle catalyst system under ambient reaction conditions is of great value for the chemo- and regioselective generation of interesting building blocks in organic synthesis. Therefore, we present the large-scale application for the cobalt-catalyzed 1,4-hydrovinylation of 1,3-dienes with terminal alkenes (Scheme
[1]
), the cobalt-catalyzed Diels-Alder reactions of various non-activated alkynes with 1,3-dienes and the cobalt-catalyzed 1,4-hydrosilylation of isoprene.
Key words
alkenes - alkynes - cobalt - Diels-Alder reaction - hydrovinylation - hydrosilylation
