Platinum-Catalyzed Hydrosilylations of Internal Alkynes: Harnessing Substituent Effects to Achieve High Regioselectivity

Rule of thumb: The high yielding title reaction is described with a focus on understanding the factors that govern the regioselectivity of the process (see scheme). Electronic, steric, and functional group properties all influence the selectivity, an [...]

From Esters to Alcohols and Back with Ruthenium and Osmium Catalysts

There and back again: Hydrogenation of esters and the reverse reaction of dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols are efficiently catalyzed by dimeric complexes of Ru and Os under neutral conditions. The Os dimer (see picture) is an outstanding catalyst [...]
