Self-assembled supramolecular bidentate ligands for aqueous organometallic catalysis
Résumé
Sugar snap P: An N,P heterobidentate supramolecular ligand was synthesized in water by mixing a monoamino-β-cyclodextrin with an appropriate phosphane. The resultant assembly was used with a platinum(II) salt in aqueous medium to catalyze the hydrogenation of an allylic alcohol (see picture).
