Tandem pinacol coupling-rearrangement of aromatic aldehydes with hydrogen catalyzed by a combination of a platinum complex and a polyoxometalate

Together with a strongly oxidizing polyoxometalate, H5PV 2Mo10O40, PtII(N-(2,6- diisopropylphenyl)pyrazin-2-ylmethanimine)Cl2 forms a combined catalyst that was active in the tandem pinacol coupling-rearrangement of aryl aldehydes to give mostly the corresponding diarylacetaldehyde in high yields using molecular hydrogen as the reducing agent.

DURCH STERISCHE EFFEKTE STABILISIERTE β-KETOCARBONSAEUREN

Increasing steric hindrance in β-keto carboxylic acids leads to an increasing kinetic stability towards decarboxylation, till systems are reached wich are completely stable at room temperature.Simultaneously the tautomeric equilibrium is changed in favour of the (Z)-enol, and finally in favour of the (E)-configurated enol.
