title: Ruthenium(II) pyrazolyl-pyridyl-oxazolinyl complex catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones.
abstract: Lowering the ketone: Ru(II) complexes containing a chiral pyridyl-based 1H-pyrazolyl-oxazolinyl NNN ligand were synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallographic studies. These complex catalysts efficiently catalyzed the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones, reaching up to 99 % ee for the desired products.
