Metal-ligand cooperation by aromatization-dearomatization: a new paradigm in bond activation and "green" catalysis.
@article{Gunanathan2011MetalligandCB, title={Metal-ligand cooperation by aromatization-dearomatization: a new paradigm in bond activation and "green" catalysis.}, author={C. Gunanathan and D. Milstein}, journal={Accounts of chemical research}, year={2011}, volume={44 8}, pages={ 588-602 } }
In view of global concerns regarding the environment and sustainable energy resources, there is a strong need for the discovery of new, green catalytic reactions. For this purpose, fresh approaches to catalytic design are desirable. In recent years, complexes based on "cooperating" ligands have exhibited remarkable catalytic activity. These ligands cooperate with the metal center by undergoing reversible structural changes in the processes of substrate activation and product formation. We have… CONTINUE READING
