摘要

The use of stable chelating bidentate phosphine ligands in [RuCp (PP)]+ allylation catalysts effectively blocks the C-allylation of phenols; the resulting catalysts selectively form allyl phenyl ethers. The results provide an interesting example in which the application of the geminal dialkyl substitution in the bridge of a bidentate ligand serves as a diagnostic tool to probe the nature of the selectivity-determining step in a catalytic pathway in homogeneous ...
