selective hydrogenation of the CNO bond of cinnamaldehyde and the hydroformylation of
pent-1-ene both under biphasic conditions. … 5a Recently, Pringle and coworkers showed high
efficiency of THMP complexes of Pt, Pd and Ni in catalytic hydrophosphination of
formaldehyde,6 and biphasic hydrogenation of sorbic acid was reported using THMP complexes
of Ru.In this study, we have prepared novel THMP complexes of Ir and Rh, and their catalytic …
