In 2022,Li, Jingjing; Ye, Jianxun; Zhou, Jiayu; Li, Jing; Liu, Delong; Zhang, Wanbin published an article in Chemical Communications (Cambridge, United Kingdom). The title of the article was 《RuPHOX-Ru catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-substituted tetralones via a dynamic kinetic resolution》.SDS of cas: 7073-94-1 The author mentioned the following in the article:
The efficient RuPHOX-Ru catalyzed asym. hydrogenation of α-substituted tetralones via a dynamic kinetic resolution has been achieved for the synthesis of chiral tetrahydronaphthols. The mechanism study indicated that hydrogenation with H2 gas, rather than transfer hydrogenation with EtOH solvent as the hydrogen source, predominates in the reaction pathway. In the part of experimental materials, we found many familiar compounds, such as 1-Bromo-2-isopropylbenzene(cas: 7073-94-1SDS of cas: 7073-94-1)
1-Bromo-2-isopropylbenzene(cas: 7073-94-1) belongs to organobromine compounds.The reactivity of organobromine compounds resembles but is intermediate between the reactivity of organochlorine and organoiodine compounds. The principal reactions for organobromides include dehydrobromination, Grignard reactions, reductive coupling, and nucleophilic substitution.SDS of cas: 7073-94-1
