EXPERIMENT B Homogeneous Catalysis Nickel-catalyzed isomerization of hept-3-ene.1 Transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.2,3 In the first part of this experiment you will synthesize a nickel phosphite complex, tetrakis(triethylphosphite)nickel(0), that is a precatalyst for the isomerization of alkenes. The catalytic reaction is homogeneous and the active catalyst is prepared via protonation of […]
