Cyclotrimerisation of isocyanates catalysed by low-coordinate Mn(II) and Fe(II) m-terphenyl complexes (2016)
Journal Article
Sharpe, H. R., Geer, A. M., Williams, H. E., Blundell, T. J., Lewis, W., Blake, A. J., & Kays, D. L. (2017). Cyclotrimerisation of isocyanates catalysed by low-coordinate Mn(II) and Fe(II) m-terphenyl complexes. Chemical Communications, 53(5), 937-940. https://doi.org/10.1039/C6CC07243G

Two- and three-coordinate m-terphenyl complexes of manganese and iron are efficient catalysts for the selective cyclotrimerisation of primary aliphatic isocyanates affording isocyanurates in short reaction times and under mild conditions.
