A Highly Efficient Catalyst for Selective Oxidative Scission of Olefins to Aldehydes: Abnormal-NHC–Ru(II) Complex in Oxidation Chemistry

TL;DR: The utility and selectivity of the catalyst [Ru(COD)(L(1))Br2] (1) bearing a fused π-conjugated imidazo[1,2-a][1,8]naphthyridine-based abnormal N-heterocyclic carbene ligand L(1) is demonstrated toward selective oxidation in an EtOAc/CH3CN/H2O solvent mixture at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic Conversion of Alcohols to Carboxylic Acid Salts and Hydrogen with Alkaline Water

TL;DR: In this article, a [RuH(CO)(py-NP)(PPh3)2]Cl catalyst was found to be effective for catalytic transformation of primary alcohols including amino alcohols, to the corresponding carboxylic acid salts and two molecules of hydrogen with alkaline water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acceptorless Dehydrogenation of Alcohols on a Diruthenium(II,II) Platform

TL;DR: The diruthenium(II,II) complex [Ru2(L1)(OAc)3]Cl (1), spanned by a naphthyridine-diimine ligand and bridged by three acetates, has been synthesized as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Double Dehydrogenation of Primary Amines to Nitriles by a Ruthenium Complex Featuring Pyrazole Functionality.

TL;DR: A ruthenium(II) complex bearing a naphthyridine-functionalized pyrazole ligand catalyzes oxidant-free and acceptorless selective double dehydrogenation of primary amines to nitriles at moderate temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amide synthesis from alcohols and amines catalyzed by a RuII–N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)–carbonyl complex ☆

TL;DR: In this paper, a RuII-dihydride/Ru0 sequence was proposed in the catalytic cycle, which showed diverse substrate scope for phosphine-free acceptorless coupling between alcohols and amines to amides.
