Metal Catalyzed Reductive C-C Bond Formation: A Departure from Preformed Organometallic Reagents
TheprototypicalcatalyticreductiveC–Cbondformations,theFischer-Tropsch reaction [1] and alkene hydroformylation [2], were discovered in 1922 and 1938, respectively [3,4]. These processes, which involve reductive coupling to carbon monoxide, have long been applied to the industrial manufacture of commodity chemicals [5]. Notably, alkene hydroformylation, also known as the oxo-synthesis, has emerged as the largest volume application of homo- neous metal catalysis, accounting for the production of over 7 million metric tons of aldehyde annually. Despite the impact of these prototypical reductive C–C bond formations, this ?eld of research lay fallow for several decades. Eventually, the increased availability of mild terminal reductants, in part- ular silanes, led to a renaissance in the area of catalytic reductive C–C bond formation.Forexample,the?rstcatalyticreductiveC–Ccouplingsbeyond- droformylation, which involve the hydrosilylative dimerization of conjugated dienes [6–12], appeared in 1969 – approximately 16 years after the ?rst - ported metal-catalyzed alkene hydrosilylation [13].
