Talk:Reductions with hydrosilanes

Wow
Wow this is really well done.--24.222.218.100 (talk) 02:48, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
 * No, it is (or was) very poorly done. It relied on specialized untitled references. Narrow perspective. --Smokefoot (talk) 14:17, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

This material might be more suited for another article: A variety of alternative methods for the enantioselective reduction of double bonds are known. Most of these employ catalytic amounts of a transition metal complex and use hydrogen gas as the reducing agent. For instance, iridium complexes of chiral phosphine-oxazoline ligands catalyze the hydrogenation of trisubstituted alkenes in high yield and enantioselecitivity. (16) Ketones may be reduced using either transfer hydrogenative methods. or with hydrogen in the presence of rhodium catalysts. The example below uses the PennPhos ligand. (17)
