Title:: Water-soluble carbene complexes as catalysts for the hydrogenation of acetophenone under hydrogen pressure
Abstract:: The synthesis of water-soluble Rh(I), Ir(I), and Ru(II) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes is described. These complexes are applied as catalysts for aqueous phase hydrogenation reactions. Good hydrogenation activities under ca. 40 atm pressure H-2 at room temperature are observed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
