Iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins
Article Abstract:
Iridium catalysts with chiral P, N ligands emerged as a new class of highly efficient catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation. This new class catalyst can be used to hydrogenate the variety of substrates for which no suitable catalysts were available before.
