50. Turnover frequency (TOF) is defined as mol of product per mol of catalyst per hour.
51. Similar hydrogenation using other protic solvents (MeOH, EtOH, i-PrOH, n-BuOH) were considerably slower requiring relatively long reaction times (>12ah) under analogous conditions.
52. For AH of simple ketones in toluene see:, F. Naud, C. Malan, F. Spindler, C. Rüggeberg, A. T. Schmidt, H.-U. Blaser, Adv. Synth. Catal. 2006, 348, 47-50.
53. AH under analogous conditions using a toluene/(S)-1-phenylethanol 9:1 (v/v) mixture as solvent showed reduced activity (80% conv./2ah, 90% ee). The same inhibitory effect by product (S)-2 may lower TOF in toluene solvent at high conversions.
