Role of Alkaline-Earth Metal-Catalyst: A Theoretical Study of Pyridines Hydroboration
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to investigate the mechanism of alkaline-earth-metal-catalyzed hydroboration of pyridines with borane. In this reaction, the active catalytic species is considered to be an alkaline earth metal hydride complex when the corresponding al...
