Efficient transfer hydrogenation of alkynes and alkenes with methanol catalysed by hydrido(methoxo)iridium(III) complexes

Abstract

Hydrido(methoxo)iridium(III) complexes, [{Ir(H)(diphosphine)}2(µ-OMe)2(µ-Cl)]+Cl [diphosphine = (R)-BINAP 2a or = 2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-biphenyl (BPBP) 2b] catalysed transfer hydrogenation of alkynes with methanol to give trans-alkenes selectively; plausible reaction pathways are also proposed.
