BenzenesulfonaMide, N-(2-aMinoethyl)-4-(trifluoroMethyl)-

Uses

N-(2-Aminoethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide can be used as a ligand to synthesize half-sandwich Rh(III) complex, which is employed as a catalyst for the reduction of NAD⁺ to NADH by transfer hydrogenation using sodium formate as a hydride source. It is also used to form pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridium (Cp*Ir)-diamine catalyst for selective transfer hydrogenation of various quinoxalines to synthesize corresponding tetrahydroquinxalines.
