Heterolytic dihydrogen activation with the 1,8-bis(diphenylphosphino)naphthalene/B(C6F5)3 pair and its application for metal-free catalytic hydrogenation of silyl enol ethers

Abstract

The “frustrated Lewis pair” 1,8-bis(diphenylphosphino)naphthalene/B(C6F5)3 reversibly activates dihydrogen; it serves as an active catalyst for the hydrogenation of silyl enol ethers under mild reaction conditions.
