Synthesis and study of ruthenium phosphine complexes for the catalytic hydrogenation of imines

Three classes of catalyst based on the "RuCl(PP)" (PP = chelating diphosphine) core have been prepared: dinuclear species containing two such moieties, and mononuclear complexes in which the remaining coordination sites are occupied by a potentially labile arene or nitrile ligand. High...
