Abstract

Six rhodium–carbene complexes (2a–f) have been prepared and the new compounds characterized by C, H, N analyses, 1H-n.m.r. and 13C-n.m.r. Phenylboronic acid reacts with aldehydes in the presence of a catalytic amount of rhodium(I)–carbene complex, RhCl(COD)(1,3-dialkylbenzimidazolidin-2-ylidene), (2a–f), to give the corresponding aryl secondary alcohols in good yields.
