A mechanistic study of alkene hydrogenation

The work described in this thesis explores the influence of the nature of transition metals, the electronic properties of ligands and the effect of counter-ions in the regioselectivity of transition metal-hydride addition (hydrometalation) to carbon-carbon double bonds. The method used to investigat...
