Ligand modification for the tuning of activity and selectivity in the chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls using EtOH as a hydrogen source
{{output}}
The selective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones, either at the olefinic or the carbonyl site, offers attractive synthetic opportunities. While carbonyl reduction is well established, selective olefin reduction is less common, particularly when using envir... ...
