Chelating diphosphite complexes of nickel(0) and platinum(0): their remarkable stability and hydrocyanation activity
Abstract
The synthesis, stability and hydrocyanation catalytic activity of nickel(0) complexes of the diphosphite 1 derived from 2,2′-biphenol are described; the X-ray crystal structures of the ligand 1 and its platinum(0) complex 2b are reported.
