Application: | Trimethylaluminum solution can be used as a reagent in the synthesis of: • Polyhydroxylated cyclohexanes by stereoselective rearrangement of unsaturated glycosides. • Partially hydrolyzed trimethylaluminum (PHT) catalyst for the polymerization of olefins. • Methyl benzene by methylation of anisole derivatives using nickel-1,3-dicyclohexylim |
Application: | Used in a recently reported Al-catalyzed oxidation based on Oppenauer chemistry providing excellent yields of aldehydes and ketones. As a (1:1) complex with binol catalyzes the dynamic kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols with Novozym 435. |
