A zwitterionic palladium complex of a phosphine bearing a perchlorinated carba-closo-dodecaborate anion as a ligand substituent is reported. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals that, in the solid state, one of the chlorides of the carborane cage occupies a coordination site of the square-planar complex. However, in solution, the P-carborane bond of the ligand is rapidly rotating at temperatures as low as -90 °C, which demonstrates the carborane substituent's weak coordinative ability even though this anion is covalently linked to the phosphine ligand. The complex is thermally stable and catalyzes the vinyl addition polymerization of norbornene.

Olefins are prevalent substrates and functionalities. The synthesis of olefins from readily available starting materials such as alcohols, amines and carboxylic acids is of great significance to address the sustainability concerns in organic synthesis. Metallaphotoredox-catalyzed defunctionalizations were reported to achieve such transformations under mild conditions. However, all these valuable strategies require a transition metal catalyst, a ligand or an expensive photocatalyst, with the challenges of controlling the region- and stereoselectivities remaining. Herein, we present a fundamentally distinct strategy enabled by electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes, for the selective synthesis of olefins from these simple and easily available starting materials. The conversions took place via photoactivation of the EDA complexes of the activated substrates with alkali salts, followed by hydrogen atom elimination from in situ generated alkyl radicals. This method is operationally simple and straightforward and free of photocatalysts and transition-metals, and shows high regio- and stereoselectivities.

Here, we reported for the first time an iron-catalyzed highly enantioselective hydrogenation of minimally functionalized 1,1-disubstituted alkenes to access chiral alkanes with full conversion and excellent ee. A novel chiral 8-oxazoline iminoquinoline ligand and its iron complex have been designed and synthesized. This protocol is operationally simple by using 1 atm of hydrogen gas and shows good functional group tolerance. A primary mechanism has been proposed by the deuterium-labeling experiments.
