Abstract
AbstractThe single‐site supported organozirconium catalyst Cp*ZrBz2/ZrS (Cp*=Me5C5, Bz=benzyl, ZrS=sulfated zirconia) catalyzes the single‐face/all‐cis hydrogenation of a large series of alkylated and fused arene derivatives to the corresponding all‐cis‐cyclohexanes. Kinetic/mechanistic and DFT analysis argue that stereoselection involves rapid, sequential H2 delivery to a single catalyst‐bound arene face, versus any competing intramolecular arene π‐face interchange.
