Mechanochemical dehydrocoupling of dimethylamine borane and hydrogenation reactions using Wilkinson's catalyst

Description

No / Mechanochemistry enabled the selective synthesis of the recherche´
orange polymorph of Wilkinson’s catalyst [RhCl(PPh3)3]. The mechanochemically prepared Rh-complex catalysed the solvent-free dehydrogenation of Me2NHBH3 in a ball mill. The in situ-generated hydrogen
(H2) could be utilised for Rh-catalysed hydrogenation reactions by ball
milling. / We thank the RWTH Aachen University for support from the Distinguished Professorship Program funded by the Excellence Initiative of the German federal and state governments, and the EPSRC for funding (EP/L019655/1).
