Activité catalytique de dérivés du ruthénium(II) contenant le ligand triméthylyphosphine

Abstract Three ruthenium(II) complexes containing the ligand PMe3,:RuCl2(PMe3)(C6H6) (I), RuCl2(PMe3)4 (II) and RuCl2(CO)2(PMe3)2 (III) were prepared and their catalytic properties investigated. They showed activity as hydrogenation catalysts in the presence of Me2NH · BH3 and alcohol and the activity increased significantly in the order I
