Metal catalysed transfer hydrogenation, dehydrogenation and racemisation of amines

This thesis describes the study of the fundamental mechanisms relating to asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of imines and the transfer dehydrogenation and racemisation of secondary amines by Cp*Rh and Cp*Ir complexes. A series of 16-electron complex of the type Cp*M(XNC6H4NX’) (where M = Rh or...
