Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Hydrosilylation of Aryl Ketones Catalyzed by Copper Hydride Complexed by Nonracemic Biphenyl Bis-phosphine Ligands
TL;DR: CuH is an extremely reactive catalyst capable of effecting asymmetric hydrosilylations of aromatic ketones at temperatures between -50 and -78 degrees C and inexpensive silanes serve as stoichiometric sources of hydride.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the nature of the 'heterogeneous' catalyst: nickel-on-charcoal.
TL;DR: In this article, the existence of an equilibrium for this homogeneous species between nickel located inside vs outside the pore system of charcoal strongly favors the former, thus leaving only traces of metal detectable in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ligand-accelerated, copper-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylations of aryl ketones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper Hydride-Catalyzed Tandem 1,4-Reduction/Alkylation Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, an enone is exposed to a catalytic quantity of [CuH(PPh3)]6 in the presence of one of several silyl hydrides (PhMe2SiH, PMHS, HMe2SiOSiMe2H) leading to conjugate reduction with concomitant formation of the corresponding silyls enol ether.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrosilylation of aldehydes and ketones catalyzed by [Ph3P(CuH)]6
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that exposure of an aldehyde or ketone to ≤ 5 mol% of Stryker's reagent [Ph 3 P(CuH)] 6 in the presence of one of several silanes affords the corresponding protected alcohol in high yields.
