Czegeni, Csilla Eniko published the artcileSelective hydration of nitriles to corresponding amides in air with Rh(I)-N-heterocyclic complex catalysts, Synthetic Route of 100-70-9, the main research area is rhodium heterocyclic complex catalyst nitrile hydration crystal structure.
A new synthetic method for obtaining [RhCl(cod)(NHC)] complexes (1-4) (cod = η4 -1,5- cyclooctadiene, NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene: IMes, SIMes, IPr, and SIPr, resp.) is reported together with the catalytic properties of 1-4 in nitrile hydration. In addition to the characterization of 1-4 in solution by 13C NMR spectroscopy, the structures of complexes 3, and 4 have been established also in the solid state with single-crystal X-ray diffraction anal. The Rh(I)-NHC complexes displayed excellent catalytic activity in hydration of aromatic nitriles (up to TOF = 276 h-1) in water/2-propanol (1/1 volume/volume) mixtures in air.
Catalysts published new progress about Amides Role: SPN (Synthetic Preparation), PREP (Preparation). 100-70-9 belongs to class nitriles-buliding-blocks, name is Picolinonitrile, and the molecular formula is C6H4N2, Synthetic Route of 100-70-9.
