Transfer hydrogenation of ketones and activated olefins using chelating NHC ruthenium complexes

Horn, Sabine ; Gandolfi, Claudio ; Albrecht, Martin

In: European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, 2011, vol. 2011, no. 18, p. 2863–2868

N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ruthenium complexes consisting of different donor substituents attached to the NHC ligand efficiently catalyse the transfer hydrogenation of ketones and of activated olefins in α,β-unsaturated ketones to give saturated alcohols. The most active catalyst precursor contains a tethered olefin as a hemilabile donor site. This complex also converts nitriles and,...
