Application

Hydrosilylation Catalysts

Catalyst used for many organic reactions including:
  • Chemoselective allylic alkylations
  • Stoichiometric activation of Si-H bonds and hydrosilylations
  • Inter- and intramolecular hydroacylation of alkenes along with a cocatalyst
  • Polymerization of diorganostannanes
Useful catalyst for the efficient cross-coupling of activated alkenyl tosylates with arylboronic acids. Also used to catalyze the cleavage of allyl phenolic ethers to phenols with DABCO.

[Structure: see text] 2-morpholin-4-yl-4-oxo-4H-chromen-8-yl 2,2,2-trifluoromethanesulfonate is a key intermediate for the synthesis of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) inhibitor 8-dibenzothiophen-4-yl-2-morpholin-4-yl-chromen-4-one (NU7441). Two improved methods for the synthesis of this triflate have been developed: (A) in 35% overall yield, through modification

1,2-Tritium-labeled 3-(O-carboxypropyl)- and 3-(O-carbomethoxypropyl)-oximes of 6alpha-methyl-16alpha,17alpha-cyclohexanopregn-4-ene-3,20-diones were obtained by the homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of 1,2-dehydroprecursors with gaseous tritium and the subsequent separation of the resulting mixtures by HPLC. The specific radioactivities of 50-55 Ci/mmol were prepared using tris-(triphenylphosphine)-rhodium chloride.

Homogeneous catalysis in room-temperature ionic liquids (ILs) constitutes a most interesting field of research with high potential in technical applications. As concerns the hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons, Wilkinson's compound RhCl(PPh(3))(3) represents a catalyst that provides high selectivity and activity. Herein
