Acceptorless and base-free dehydrogenation of alcohols and amines using ruthenium-hydride complexes

An efficient, operatively simple, acceptorless, and base-free dehydrogenation of secondary alcohols and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds was achieved by using readily available ruthenium hydride complexes as precatalysts. The complex RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3 (1) and Shvo’s complex (2) showed excell...
