Selective dimerization of 1,6-diynes catalyzed by ionic liquid-supported nickel complexes in an ionic liquid/toluene biphasic system

Abstract

A NiCl2-6H2O/Zn reagent with a 2-aryliminomethylpyridine ligand catalyzed cyclization/polymerization of 1,6-diynes to yield mainly the corresponding poly(1,3-butadienylene) compounds, whereas NiBr2-3H2O/Zn with the use of 3-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)-ethyl)-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide as a ligand converted 1,6-diynes to the corresponding annulated 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraenes in a biphasic solvent system consisting of toluene and an ionic liquid.
