H/D exchange at aromatic and heteroaromatic hydrocarbons using D2O as the deuterium source and ruthenium dihydrogen complexes as the catalyst.
Hydrogen/deuterium exchange processes are powerful methods to evaluate the potential of a catalyst for the cleavage and formation of a C H bond. The isotopic exchange reactions can also be of… Expand
