Abstract
Current methods for arene hydrogenation generally need either harsh reaction conditions or complex catalyst preparation. Here we describe a mild and convenient protocol that only utilizes commercially available catalysts. Using [Rh(nbd)Cl]2 and Pd/C together as catalysts, arenes bearing various functional groups can be hydrogenated under 1 atm of H2 at room temperature. This arene hydrogenation can also be achieved using catalysts of [Rh(cod)Cl]2 and PtO2, thus avoiding glovebox manipulations and simplifying the reaction procedure.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
