Let¡¯s face it, organic chemistry can seem difficult to learn. Especially from a beginner¡¯s point of view. Like 1486-28-8, Name is Methyldiphenylphosphine. In a document, author is Mannu, Alberto, introducing its new discovery. COA of Formula: C13H13P.
Transfer Hydrogenation from 2-propanol to Acetophenone Catalyzed by [RuCl2(eta(6)-arene)P] (P = monophosphine) and [Rh(PP)(2)]X (PP = diphosphine, X = Cl-, BF4-) Complexes
The reduction of ketones through homogeneous transfer hydrogenation catalyzed by transition metals is one of the most important routes for obtaining alcohols from carbonyl compounds. The interest of this method increases when opportune catalytic precursors are able to perform the transformation in an asymmetric fashion, generating enantiomerically enriched chiral alcohols. This reaction has been extensively studied in terms of catalysts and variety of substrates. A large amount of information about the possible mechanisms is available nowadays, which has been of high importance for the development of systems with excellent outcomes in terms of conversion, enantioselectivity and Turn Over Frequency. On the other side, many mechanistic aspects are still unclear, especially for those catalytic precursors which have shown only moderate performances in transfer hydeogenation. This is the case of neutral [RuCl2(eta(6)-arene)(P)] and cationic [Rh(PP)(2)]X (X = anion; P and PP = mono- and bidentate phosphine, respectively) complexes. Herein, a summary of the known information about the Transfer Hydrogenation catalyzed by these complexes is provided with a continuous focus on the more relevant mechanistic features.
I hope this article can help some friends in scientific research. I am very proud of our efforts over the past few months and hope to 1486-28-8 help many people in the next few years. COA of Formula: C13H13P.
