Abstract
An immobilized cationic rhodium(I) catalyst bearing the diphosphine 1,1'-bis(diisopropylphosphino)ferrocene (DiPFc, 1) allows efficient and chemoselective hydrogenation of a range of functionalized aldehydes, as well as alkenes and alkynes, under mild conditions. This heterogenized catalyst system is convenient to prepare, is stable to air and moisture over extended periods, and is readily recycled.
