Ligand-coordinated transition metal catalysis: DSM-FirmenichLast 5 Years Research Landscape

Uncontrolled side reactions during hydrogenation and isomerization reduce chemical purity and yield. This cluster engineers specific ligand-metal complexes to stabilize transition states and ensure selective functional group transformation.

What technical problems is DSM-Firmenich addressing in Ligand-coordinated transition metal catalysis?

Low chemoselective functional group reduction

(19)evidences

Unwanted side reactions and poor selectivity during the reduction of complex carbonyl-containing substrates. Achieving precise transformation of specific bonds without degrading other molecular features increases yield and purity in fragrance and nutritional ingredient synthesis.
