TL;DR: In this paper, two new polypyridyl ligands containing substituent Br at different positions in the phenyl ring, OBIP {OBIP = 2-(2-bromophenyl)imidazo[4,5-f]-1,10-phenanthroline}, PBIP {PBIP = 4bromphenyl)-imidazyl-1.10-phosphorus [4,9-dimethyl]-1.5f]-phenanthropyl] and their Ru(II) complexes, [Ru(d

A Theoretical Study on the Borane-Catalyzed Reductive Amination of Aniline and Benzaldehyde with Dihydrogen: The Origins of Chemoselectivity.
TL;DR: Density functional theory calculations are used in this study to investigate the product selectivity and mechanism of borane-catalyzed reductive aldehyde amination by a H2 reducing agent and indicate that the linear relationship between the charge on the boron atom in the Lewis acid and the relative energies of the Lewis adduct and H2 splitting transition state indicates that this parameter determines productSelectivity.
