Abstract
This account describes work, performed by my research group during the past decade,
designed to understand the mechanistic roles of cosolvents and additives in reductions
involving samarium(II) iodide (SmI2). Emphasis is placed on studies designed to elucidate the roles of the cosolvent
hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and proton donors (water, alcohols, and glycols) in
the mechanisms of important bond-forming reactions and reductions initiated by SmI2.
1 Background and Introduction
1.1 Project Inception
2 Mechanistic Studies on the Role of Hexamethylphosphoramide in the Reactions of
Samarium(II) Iodide
3 Impact of Proton Donors on the Mechanism of Substrate Reduction
4 Conclusions and Future Work
Key words
samarium(II) iodide - electron transfer - hexamethylphosphoramide - proton donors
- reductions
