Abstract

A new catalytic system based on rhodium black using Crabtree's catalyst as an additive for direct hydrogen isotope exchange in aromatic compounds has been investigated. The level of deuterium incorporation can be improved from for example 16 to 93%. The new catalyst mixture tolerates a variety of solvents. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
