Heterobimetallic tin(II) oxido clusters of the type [{Sn6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OCH2R)4} {W(CO)5}4] and [{Sn5(μ3-O)2(μ-OCH2R)4(μ3-OCH2R)2}{Fe(CO)4}2]

Reaction of the tin(II) alkoxides bis(2-methoxyphenylmethanolate)tin(II) (1) and bis(2,4-dimethoxyphenylmethanolate)tin(II) (2) with [W(CO)5(thf)] and [Fe2(CO)9], respectively, gave the heterobimetallic tin(II) oxido clusters [{Sn6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OCH2R)4}{W(CO)5}4] [3, R[dbnd6]C6H4(OCH3)-2); 4, R[dbnd6]C6H3(OCH3)2-2,4] and [{Sn5(μ3-O)2(μ-OCH2R)4(μ3-OCH2R)2}{Fe(CO)4}2] [5, R[dbnd6]C6H3(OCH3)2-2,4] which were isolated reproducibly with fair yield as a result of partial hydrolysis in the presence of moisture. The metal oxido clusters are composed of polynuclear tin(II) oxido cages entrapped by arylmethanolato ligands and coordinated to metal carbonyl moieties via lone pairs of electrons at tin. The compounds were analyzed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (1, 4·2THF and 5), elemental analyses, ATR-IR spectroscopy and1H,13C{1H} and119Sn{1H) NMR spectroscopy in solution as well as in solid state.

Selective reduction of aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols with KB3H8, an air- and moisture-stable, nontoxic, and easy-to-handle reagent, in water and THF has been explored under an air atmosphere for the first time. Control experiments illustrated the good selectivity of KB3H8 over NaBH4 for the reduction of 4-acetylbenzaldehyde and aromatic keto esters. This journal is

Deuterium labeling is an interesting process that leads to compounds of use in different fields. We describe the transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes and the selective C1 deuteration of the obtained alcohols in D2O, as the only deuterium source. Different aromatic, alkylic and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes were reduced in the presence of [RuCl(p-cymene)(dmbpy)]BF4, (dmbpy=4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine) as the pre-catalyst and HCO2Na/HCO2H as the hydrogen source. Moreover, furfural and glucose, were selectively reduced to the valuable alcohols, furfuryl alcohol and sorbitol. The processes were carried out in neat water or in a biphasic water/toluene system. The biphasic system allowed easy recycling, higher yields, and higher selective D incorporation (using D2O/toluene). The deuteration took place due to an efficient effective M–H/D+ exchange from D2O that allows the inversion of polarity of D+ (umpolung). DFT calculations that explain the catalytic behavior in water are also included.
