First discovery, which showed the ability of this NMR–technique to clucidate the pairwise hydrogen transfer to the substrates.

Identification of unstable dihydride intermediates, participating in the catalytic cycles of hydrogenation reactions catalyzed by rhodium, iridium, palladium and ruthenium complexes of different structures.

Study of PHIP in the homogeneous hydrogenation reactions of alkenes and alkynes, catalyzed by various platinum complexes.
