Abstract
Abstract Reaction of 3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ol ( 1 ) with Ir(ClO 4 )(CO)(PPh 3 ) 2 ( 2 ) under nitrogen at 25°C gives 3-phenylprop-2-enal ( 4 ), 3-phenylprop-2-ene ( 5 , and 3-phenylpropanal ( 6 ). Dehydrogenation of 1 by 2 gives Ir(H) 2 (ClO) 4 (CO)(PPh 3 ) 2 ( 3 ) which reacts with another molecule of 1 to give 5, 2 and H 2 O. Isomerization of 1 to 6 rapidly occurs and hydrogenation of 6 to 3-phenylpropan-1-ol ( 12 ) slowly follows in the presence of 2 under hydrogen at 25°C. The catalytically active species for the isomerization under nitrogen seems to be 3 .
