Transfer Hydrogenation from 2-propanol to Acetophenone Catalyzed by [RuCl<sub>2</sub>(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)P] (P = monophosphine) and [Rh(PP)<sub>2</sub>]X (PP = diphosphine, X = Cl<sup>−</sup>, BF<sub>4</sub><sup>−</sup>) Complexes

The reduction of ketones through homogeneous transfer hydrogenation catalyzed by transition metals is one of the most important routes for obtaining alcohols from carbonyl compounds. The interest of this method increases when opportune catalytic precursors are able to perform the transformation in a...
