- NOVEL RUTHENIUM COMPLEX AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING OPTICALLY ACTIVE ALCOHOL COMPOUND USING SAME AS CATALYST
-
The present invention provides: a novel ruthenium complex which has excellent catalytic activity with respect to reactivity in the reduction of a multiple bond, in particular, in the asymmetric reduction of a carbonyl compound, enantioselectivity, etc.; a catalyst which comprises the ruthenium complex; and a process for producing optically active compound, in particular, an optically active alcohol compound, using the catalyst. The ruthenium complex has a ruthenacyclic structure. The catalyst is a catalyst for asymmetric reduction which comprises the ruthenium complex.
