The hydrogenation of phenylacetone to cyclohexylacetone, in which the aromatic ring is selectively reduced in preference to the carbonyl group, has been achieved with chemoselectivities exceeding 90%. The catalyst (precatalyst) used to achieve this transfo ...

A method for the Friedel-Crafts-type insertion reaction of acetylene with acid chlorides in chloroaluminate ionic liquids is presented. The use of Ionic liquids not only serves to avoid the use of carbon tetrachloride or 1,2-dichloroethane but also suppres ...

The synthesis, DNA binding properties and cytotoxicity of a series of Ru(II)-arene complexes containing oligocationic ammonium-functionalized triarylphosphines, of the type Ru(p-cymene)Cl-2(L) (L - oligocationic phosphine), are reported. The complexes are ...

The selective catalytic decomposition of formic acid into hydrogen and carbon dioxide has been achieved in water under mild conditions. For the first time, a ruthenium ion in combination with series of oligocationic, ammoniomethyl-substituted triarylphosph ...
