  • Title: Kinetic isotope effect evidence for a concerted hydrogen transfer mechanism in transfer hydrogenations catalyzed by [p-(Me2CH)C6H4Me]Ru- (NHCHPhCHPhNSO2C6H4-p-CH3).
    Author: Casey CP, Johnson JB.
    Journal: J Org Chem; 2003 Mar 07; 68(5):1998-2001. PubMed ID: 12608822.
    Abstract:
    The isotope effects in the reaction of [p-(Me2CH)C6H4Me]Ru(NHCHPhCHPhNSO2C6H4-p-CH3) (1) with isopropyl alcohol were 1.79 for transfer of hydrogen from OH to N and 2.86 for transfer from CH to Ru. The isotope effect for transfer of deuterium from doubly labeled material (kCHOH/kCDOD = 4.88) was within experimental error of the product of the two individual isotope effects. These isotope effects provide convincing evidence for a mechanism involving concurrent transfer of hydrogen from oxygen to nitrogen and from carbon to ruthenium.
