Metal complexes of a C2-symmetric bisproline catalyse the asymmetric hydrosilylation of ketones 29Si NMR spectra provide evidence of the mechanism. 265 ... [Pg.33]

A review on the industrial applications of homogeneous catalysts is particularly welcome. The proceedings of recent symposia and a general text have been published in addition to reviews on metal cluster catalysts, activation of saturated hydrocarbons by metal complexes in solution, catalysis by arene Group-VIB tricarbonyls, titanocene-catalysed reactions ofalkenes, transition-metal hydrides in catalysis, the mechanisms of the catalytic cyclization of aliphatic, hydrocarbons, asymmetric hydrosilylation and asymmetric synthesis. A n.m.r. study of the conformations of chelated Diop and a MO study of organo-metallic migration reactions are also of interest. Polymer supported catalysts have been reviewed and the relationship between cross-linking of the polymer and catalytic activity has been discussed. ... [Pg.400]
