Oxo‐Rhenium(V) Complexes Containing Heterocyclic Ligands as Catalysts for the Reduction of Sulfoxides
2014
This work reports the catalytic activity of a large variety of oxo-rhenium(V) complexes (1 mol-%) containing the ligands 2-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)benzotriazole (Hhmpbta), 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole (Hhpbt), 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole (Hhpbo), and 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole (Hhpbi) in the deoxygenation of sulfoxides with silanes or boranes as the reducing agents. In general, all of the complexes are excellent catalysts, although the PhSiH3/[ReOBr2(hmpbta)(PPh3)] and pinacolborane/[ReOBr2(hmpbta)(PPh3)] systems are the most efficient for the reduction of aromatic and aliphatic sulfoxides and tolerate different functional groups.
