Compositions and methods for facilitating reaction at room temperature

摘要

Compositions and methods useful in facilitating or conducting a reaction at effective conditions, such as room temperature (e.g. about 70 degrees F.), utilize a compound including at least two different heteroatoms, and optionally a heterocycle, and a transition metal. The compound is effective in facilitating a variety of reactions including hydrolysis reactions, alcoholysis reactions, aminolysis reactions, carbon dioxide conversion reactions, hydroamination reactions, hydration reactions, and the like.
