  • Patent number: 9061963
    Abstract: A process is described for preparing aromatic and heteroaromatic amines of the general formula (I) Ar—NR1R2, in which an aromatic compound with the general formula (II) Ar—X is reacted in the presence of a catalyst with an amine of the general formula (III) H—NR1R2 and a base, wherein the catalyst is selected from transition metal complexes having one or more ligands with the general formula (IV).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 3, 2012
    Date of Patent: June 23, 2015
    Assignee: STUDIENGESELLSCHAFT KOHLE MBH
    Inventors: Manfred Reetz, Gerlinde Mehler

  • Patent number: 7704912
    Abstract: The invention relates to certain chiral transition metal catalysts, to the metal of which at least two structurally different monophosphorus ligands are bonded, at least one of said monophosphorus ligands being chiral. Said chiral transition metal catalysts are suitable as catalysts for use in asymmetric transition metal-catalyzed reactions, providing better enantioselectivities than in cases where only one structurally defined ligand is used.

  • Publication number: 20080207942
    Abstract: Phosphoramidites with the general formulae I to VI are claimed together with the use of these compounds as ligands of transition metal compounds, in particular in transition metal catalysts, in the hydrogenation, transfer hydrogenation, hydroboration, hydrocyanation, 1,4-addition, hydroformylation, hydrosilylation, hydrovinylation, and Heck reactions of prochiral olefins, ketones, or ketimines.

  • Publication number: 20060224002
    Abstract: The invention claims chiral di- and triphosphites of general formulas (I) or (II), which are bridged by suitable groups. The claimed compounds can be used in asymmetric transition metal catalysis and as chiral transition metal catalysts.
