Abstract
The hydrogenation of myrcene (1) catalyzed by Ru, Cr, Ir and Rh complexes leads to the formation of a complex mixture of mono-, di- and trihydrogenated products. Monohydrogenated products have been obtained with excellent combined selectivity of 95-98% at a high conversion of myrcene (>80%) by the appropriate choice of the catalyst and reaction conditions.
