Mechanistic investigations of rhodium-catalyzed alkyne hydrothiolation
Herein, thorough mechanistic investigations into alkyne hydrothiolation catalyzed by [Tp*RhI(PPh₃)₂] (Tp* = tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate) are reported. The mechanism is shown to proceed through an intermediate [Tp*RhIIIH(SR)] complex (R = alkyl, aryl). Alkyne migratory insertion is shown to occ...
