New Type of 2,6-Bis(imidazo[1,2‑<i>a</i>]pyridin-2-yl)pyridine-Based Ruthenium Complexes: Active Catalysts for Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones
Abstract
Neutral and cationic ruthenium(II) complexes bearing a symmetrical 2,6-bis(imidazo[1,2-<i>a</i>]pyridin-2-yl)pyridine were synthesized and structurally characterized by NMR analysis and X-ray crystallographic determinations. These complexes have exhibited good catalytic activity in the transfer hydrogenation of ketones. In refluxing isopropyl alcohol, the conversion of the substrates reached up to 99%, and a TOF value of 356 400 h<sup>–1</sup> with 0.1 mol % catalyst was achieved- Text
