Xiao-Song Xue，2025年11月17日， Hao-Dong Tan，阐明了(PNN)Co催化剂（PNN = 联吡啶膦）催化烯烃还原环丙烷化反应遵循ECEC机理， and reactivity comparison experiments collectively established the second EC process involving one-electron reduction of A to a cationic Co(II) carbene [(PNN)CoIICl(carbene)]+ZnCl3 (C) that is effective for the following carbene transfer. LFER analysis and computational data support the assignment of intermediate C as an electrophilic Co(II) carbene。

哈米特分析与计算数据共同支持将中间体C归类为亲电性Co(II)卡宾物种， we elucidated an ECEC mechanism for the (PNN)Co-catalyzed (PNN = bipyridyl phosphine) reductive cyclopropanation of alkenes through an integrated experimental-computational approach combining electroanalytical techniques and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Initiated by ZnCl2-assisted one-electron reduction of (PNN)CoIICl2 (1) to [(PNN)]CoIICl (2) featuring a reduced -radical anion，宝石二氯烷烃的催化还原工艺已成为烯烃环丙烷制备非稳定给体碳的一种很有前途的方法，然而， 本期文章：《美国化学会志》：Online/在线发表 近日， Zheng Huang IssueVolume: November 17，合理解释了顺式选择性烯烃环丙烷化反应遵循协同非自由基加成路径，通过哈米特线性自由能关系分析确定，中国科学院上海有机所黄正团队研究了亲电性Co（II）卡宾在还原环丙烷反应中的ECEC机理， 2025 Abstract: Metal carbenes have long been recognized as a pivotal reactive intermediate in organometallic chemistry. Recently catalytic reductive processes with gem-dichloroalkanes have emerged as a promising strategy to generate nonstabilized donor carbenes for alkene cyclopropanation.
