Abstract

Mining the reactivity of uranium: Current highlights in the uranium-mediated reactions of CO include reductive coupling, CO homologation, and, most recently, the remarkable hydrogenation of CO to methanolate by the U mixed-sandwich complex 1. The theoretical catalytic cycle proceeds through the hydrogenation of CO to give the methanolate complex 2, which upon treatment with Me SiOTf, releases Me SiO CH and the uranium triflate 3, which in turn can be reduced with K/Hg to regenerate 1 (see scheme).
