Facile alkane functionalization in copper-[2.1.1]-(2,6)-pyridinophane-PhINTs systems.
Mild catalytic dehydrogenation of cycloalkanes (cyclo-C(5)H(10), cyclo-C(6)H(12), cyclo-C(8)H(16)) and aziridination of resulting olefins is reported with PhINTs and copper-[2.1.1]-(2,6)-pyridinophane (L) complexes LCuX(n)(n= 1, 2; X = Cl, OTf)"activated" with NaBAr(F)(4) in dichloromethane solution.
