Anion–cation synergistic metal-free catalytic oxidative homocoupling of benzylamines by triazolium iodide salts

Triazolium iodides are excellent catalysts for the oxidative coupling of benzylamines due to a synergistic cation/anion effect, with iodide acting as I/I2 redox manifold and the triazolium cation facilitating the iodine reduction and concomitant substrate oxidation.

About this collection

The development of novel catalysts plays a central role in advancing organic synthesis. There is a recent, emerging trend in catalysis to merge two or more catalyst components, exhibiting otherwise-impossible reactivity and selectivity. This collection, Guest Edited by Professors Motomu Kanai (University of Tokyo, Japan) and Matthias Beller (University of Rostock, Germany), highlights the exciting research in this ever-growing field referred to as Hybrid Catalysis.

Articles in this themed collection will be added below as soon as possible after they are published.

Please return to this page frequently to see the collection grow.
