This lecture covers the fundamentals of hydrogenation catalysts, discussing the impact of catalyst loadings on yields and selectivities, the mechanism of BINAP-Ru complexes, and the asymmetric hydrogenation of alcohols. It also explores the role of ligands in enhancing selectivity and the challenges associated with catalyst stability.
