45. The overall TOP of this reaction was unexpectedly low; this may be a result of deactivation by long-lived intermediates blocking reactive sites on the bimetallic particles. We are currently attempting to determine the cause of this loss of activity.
46. The degree of substitution of a given olefin is known to be geometrically inversely proportional to the rate at which it may be hydrogenated on a metal surface; see Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, Vol X, Pergamon, Oxford, 1988.
