The Rh catalysed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of imines; a mechanistic study
In a study of the mechanism of Catalytic Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation (CATHy), we report the synthesis and characterisation of the monotosylated diamine. ligands (R,R and S,S)-p-fluorobenzenesulfonyl-l,2diphenylethylenediamine (FsDPEN) and (R,R and S,S)-p-lbutylbenzenesulfonyll, 2-diphenylethyl...
