Figures ). The kinetics of all the reactions (ratio of A 2262 to A 1526 as a function of time) are presented in Figure . A summary of the reaction conditions, times, and yields are presented in Table . As can be seen from Table , the reaction yields for all of the performed reactions were similar, ranging from 62 to 70%. All of the current reactions took less time, as compared to the total reaction time in our previous study (approx. 72 hours) where DCM was used as the solvent during the reaction. Further, clear differences between catalysts and concentrations were observed in the reaction times. In the case of using 2 mol% of the catalyst, it was observed that BiHex was the fastest, with a total reaction time of 7 hours, while the reactions with the other catalysts were similar-and considerably longer (19-25 hours).
