Ruthenium-Induced Alkyne Cycloisomerization: Construction of Functional Metalated Heterocycles and Revelation of Unconventional Reaction Pathways

摘要

Although organic heterocycles have long been the major focus in the exploration of heterocyclic compounds, metalated heterocycles are turning to be a burgeoning research area recently. Metalation as a strategy to functionalize heterocycles is expected to offer an unprecedented variety of organometallic compounds with physical and chemical properties distinct from their organic counterparts.
