Pincer-type pyridine-based N-heterocyclic carbene amine Ru(II) complexes as efficient catalysts for hydrogen transfer reactions
Stable well-defined pincer-type N-heterocyclic carbene-ruthenium complexes were developed as an alternative to phosphine complexes. These highly stable phosphine-free complexes were found to be efficient catalysts for transfer hydrogen reactions: the conversion of primary alcohols to esters and the reduction of carbonyl compounds. We also describe one approach toward immobilization through covalent bonding to silica via a pendant alkoxysilane group.
