Journal ArticleDOI

Unexpected substitution reactions of bis(phosphine)platinum ethene complexes

TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of [Pt(PPh3)2(C2H4)] with moderately bulky phosphines at low temperatures did not give the expected tris(phosphine)platinum complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acyl transfer reactions in functional micelles studied by proton magnetic resonance at 270 MHz

TL;DR: The course of micelle-catalysed reactions at millimolar concentrations in aqueous solution may be followed by Fourier transform n.r.m.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and structural determination of the stable dinuclear carbonyl-phosphite rhodium(0) complex: (CO)2(P(O-o-tBuPh)3)Rh-Rh(P(O-o-tBuPh)3)(CO)3

TL;DR: The first example of a stable dinuclear carbonyl-phosphite rhodium(0) complex with a metal-metal bond distance of 2.73(1) A was reported in this article.
Book ChapterDOI

Homogeneous Transfer Hydrogenation Catalysed by Metal Complexes

TL;DR: In this paper, a reduction reaction where the hydrogen is supplied by a donor molecule, DH2, which itself undergoes dehydrogenation during the course of the reaction is described.
Book ChapterDOI

Homogeneous Hydrogenation in Organic Synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the platinum group metals have provided most of the catalysts, but in considering larger scale applications of the reactions it will be necessary in future to be aware of cost, particularly in view of the very large fluctuations in the price of rhodium over recent years.
