Hideo Shimizu et al.
Organic letters, 9(9), 1655-1657 (2007-03-29)
[reaction: see text] A novel asymmetric hydrogenation protocol using a copper catalyst is reported. A Cu(I) complex in the presence of nonracemic BDPP hydrogenates aryl ketones with moderate to high enantioselectivity.
Shui-Ming Lu et al.
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 130(20), 6451-6455 (2008-05-01)
The intramolecular cyclocarbonylation reaction with palladium-complexed dendrimers on silica is a very effective method for the regioselective synthesis of methylene 8-, 9-, and 10-membered rings. The heterogeneous dendritic catalysts are easily recovered by simple filtration and reused for up to
