Tamang, Sem Raj published the artcileIron catalysed selective reduction of esters to alcohols, Synthetic Route of 111-11-5, the main research area is ester iron catalyst selective reduction; primary alc preparation.
The reaction of (dppBIAN)FeCl2 with 3 equiv of n-BuLi afforded a catalytically active anionic Fe complex; the nature of the anionic complex was probed using EPR and IR experiments and was proposed to involve a dearomatized, radical, ligand scaffold. This complex was an active catalyst for the hydrosilylation of esters which afforded alcs.; loadings as low as 1 mol% were employed.
Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry published new progress about Hydrosilylation. 111-11-5 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, name is Methyl octanoate, and the molecular formula is C9H18O2, Synthetic Route of 111-11-5.
