A simple dinuclear monohydrido bridged ruthenium complex [{(η6-p-cymene)RuCl}2(μ-H-μ-Cl)] acts as an efficient and selective catalyst for the hydrogenation of various heteroarenes and arenes. The nature of the catalytically active species was investigated using a combination of techniques including in situ reaction monitoring, kinetic studies, quantitative poisoning experiments and electron microscopy, evidencing a dual reactivity. The results suggest that the hydrogenation of heteroarenes proceeds via molecular catalysis. In particular, monitoring the reaction progress by NMR spectroscopy indicates that [{(η6-p-cymene)RuCl}2(μ-H-μ-Cl)] is transformed into monomeric ruthenium intermediates, which upon subsequent activation of dihydrogen and hydride transfer accomplish the hydrogenation of heteroarenes under homogeneous conditions. In contrast, carbocyclic aryl motifs are hydrogenated via a heterogeneous pathway, by in situ generated ruthenium nanoparticles. Remarkably, these hydrogenation reactions can be performed using molecular hydrogen under solvent-free conditions or with 1,4-dioxane, and thus give access to a broad range of saturated heterocycles and carbocycles while generating no waste.

The catalytic toluene hydrogenation over Ni/SiO2 was carried out using H2 or a H2/H2O mixture. The toluene conversion and MCH selectivity were evaluated under partial steam pressures 0?10 kPa, at H2/t
