Kinetic and structural studies on 'tethered' Ru(II) arene ketone reduction catalysts.
A series of kinetic and structural investigations on ruthenium-based catalysts for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of ketones are reported. A method is reported for monitoring the formation of ruthenium hydride species in real time using (1)H NMR spectroscopy.
