Effect of a Substituent in Cyclopentadienyl Ligand on Iridium-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenation of Alcohols and 2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline

New iridium(III)-bipyridonate complexes having cyclopentadienyl ligands with a series of alkyl substituents were synthesized for the purpose of tuning the catalytic activity for acceptorless dehydrogenation reactions. A comparison of the catalytic activity was performed for the reaction of alcoholic...
