Abstract
Main observation and conclusionIn this work, we screened three Grubbs catalysts and two Hoveyda‐Grubbs catalysts for the production of H2 by dehydrogenation of formic acid (FA). The best results were achieved with the use of a first‐generation Hoveyda‐Grubbs catalyst. With a catalyst loading of mere 0.5 μmol, a maximum TON of 36356 was obtained within 3 h. Two key intermediates were identified by using 1H NMR and high‐resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HRESI‐MS), based on which a mechanism possibly responsible for the observed catalysis was proposed.
