Thioureas as new chiral ligands for the asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene with rhodium(I) catalysts

Crystal structure of N,N′-(1,6-hexamethylene)-bis(benzoylthiourea), C22H26N4O2S2

“…Some thioureasare organic reaction catalyst in the metal-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of carbonyl compounds and carbonylativecyclization of o -hydroxyarylacetylenes [5,6]. Recent years, with the rapid development of supramolecularchemistry, thioureasare one of many important neutral receptors because of their anion recognition properties [7][8][9].…”

“…For appliactions of thiourea, see Abdallah et al (2006); Karamé et al (2003); Nan et al (2000); Breuzard et al (2000); Tommasino et al, (2000); Reinoso García et al (2004); Leung et al (2008). For synthesis of the title compound, see: Lee et al (1985).…”

Chlorido(η4-cycloocta-1,5-diene)(N,N′-diethylthiourea-κS)rhodium(I)

“…For the application of thioureas as ligands for metal precursors in asymmetric catalysis, see: Breuzard et al (2000). For related Rh(I) complexes containing thiourea ligands, see: Cauzzi et al (1995Cauzzi et al ( , 1997.…”

“…Thiourea and thiourea-based ligands form complexes with a number of transition metals (Wilkinson, 1987;Gibson et al, 1994;Robinson et al, 2000) and their application as ligands for metal catalyst in styrene hydroformylation has been recently shown (Breuzard et al, 2000).…”
