Conclusions
-
1.
The reduced chlorodimethylsulfoxide complexes of Pd and Rh catalyze the hydrogenation of allylbenzene and its polymerization to transpropenylbenzene. Dimethyl sulfoxide is not reduced in the presence of allylbenzene.
-
2.
The Rh complex catalyzes primarily the isomerization of allylbenzene, while the Pd complex primarily catalyzes its hydrogenation.
