Table 3. HY of Carbonyl Compounds (2 M) with Complexes 7, 9, 10, and 19 under H2 with KOtBu (2 mol %) after 16 h.
| entry | complex | substrate | S/C | solvent | T (°C) | p(H2) (atm) | conversiona (%) | alcohola (%) | byproductsa (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 7 | a | 10000 | EtOH | 40 | 30 | 99 | 99 | |
| 2 | 10 | a | 10000 | EtOH | 40 | 30 | 99 | 99 | |
| 3 | 19 | a | 10000 | EtOH | 70 | 30 | 40 | 40 | |
| 4 | 9 | f | 1000 | MeOH | 50 | 20 | 56 | 55 | |
| 5 | 9 | g | 1000 | MeOH | 50 | 20 | >99 | 93 | 6b |
The HY experiments were carried out in an eight-vessel Endeavor Biotage system, and the conversions were determined by GC analysis.
