Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic carbenes derived from imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine, a fused nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring, have been systematically investigated in terms of the steric and electronic effects of substituent introduction, and the catalytic reactions of metal complexes using them have been examined. Theoretical considerations suggest that the ligand is a π-acceptor ligand, and in fact, it is expected to have a higher efficiancy on the hydrogen-transfer semi-hydrogenation of alkynes and Mizoroki-Heck reactions, than the conventional monocyclic nitrogen-containing carbenes such as IMes and IPr. The results actually show a significant acceleration effect compared to conventional ones. The steric environment also had a similar effect on the catalytic reactions as the Buchwald-type phosphorus ligands.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
ここで得られたイミダゾピリジンカルベンの系統的な性質検討は、これまで含窒素複素環カルベンがドナー性についてのみ考えられていたことに対し、アクセプター性を制御できる相補的な性質を持つカルベン配位子群になることを示すことができた。また、イミダゾピリジンカルベンの入手容易性は高く、この結果は触媒開発における配位子候補群の選択肢を一つ広げたことになる。この成果は、今後の触媒開発において積極的に活用されていくと考えている。
