57. 3 and dppf mainly gave the corresponding aldehydes of benzylic alcohols detected by GC-MS. No reaction occurred when TMEDA and DMEDA were applied as ligands. 1,10-Phenanthroline mainly converted the starting alcohols into the corresponding aldehydes, the desired esters could not be detected. 2,2′-Bipyridine provided mainly the aldehyde and only a trace amount of the desired ester.
