Elucidation of the resting state of a rhodium NNN-pincer hydrogenation catalyst that features a remarkably upfield hydride 1 H NMR chemical shift

Rhodium( i ) alkene complexes of an NNN-pincer ligand catalyze the hydrogenation of alkenes, including ethylene. The terminal or resting state of the catalyst, which exhibits an unprecedentedly upfield Rh–hydride 1 H NMR chemical shift, has been isolated and a synthetic cycle for regenerating the ca...

Description
Summary:Rhodium( i ) alkene complexes of an NNN-pincer ligand catalyze the hydrogenation of alkenes, including ethylene. The terminal or resting state of the catalyst, which exhibits an unprecedentedly upfield Rh–hydride 1 H NMR chemical shift, has been isolated and a synthetic cycle for regenerating the catalytically active species has been established.
