Transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes on amphiphilic catalyst assembled at the interface of emulsion droplets

Abstract

An amphiphilic polymer-based iridium catalyst assembled at the interface of emulsion droplets shows a remarkable rate acceleration for the transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes in water, which may result from the high surface area of the emulsion droplets and the high local concentrations of reactants around the active sites.
