Abstract

Dichlorotris(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium has been anchored to diphenylphosphinated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. The resulting leaching-resistant catalyst was employed successfully for the isomerization of allylbenzenes and allyl alcohols in numerous turnovers. The stability of the catalyst was examined in different media, and its performances were compared with those of homogeneous RuCl2(PPh3)3 and with those of polymer-bound as well as of free RhCl(PPh3)3 and IrCl(CO)(PPh3)2.
