In 2022,Lauzon, Samuel; Schouwey, Lionel; Ollevier, Thierry published an article in Organic Letters. The title of the article was ãC2-Symmetric 2,2′-Bipyridine-α,α’-1-adamantyl-diol Ligand: Bulky Iron Complexes in Asymmetric Catalysisã?Name: 2,6-Dibromopyridine The author mentioned the following in the article:
The synthesis of a chiral 2,2′;-bipyridine-α,α’-1-adamantyl-diol ligand was achieved starting from com. available materials. The bulky ligand was synthesized in three steps in 40% overall yield and stereoselectivities up to 98% de and >99.5% ee for the S,S enantiomer. The absolute configuration and structural insights of an heptacoordinated 2,2′-bipyridine-α,α’-1-Ad-diol/FeII chiral complex were obtained from single crystal diffraction anal. The newly synthesized ligand was used in iron-catalyzed asym. Mukaiyama aldol, thia-Michael and Diels-Alder reactions. In addition to this study using 2,6-Dibromopyridine, there are many other studies that have used 2,6-Dibromopyridine(cas: 626-05-1Name: 2,6-Dibromopyridine) was used in this study.
2,6-Dibromopyridine(cas: 626-05-1) belongs to pyridine. Pyridines are often used as catalysts or reagents; particular notice has been paid recently to how pyridine coordinates to metal centers enabling a wide range of valuable reactions. Name: 2,6-Dibromopyridine
