Abstract

Abstract Finding a greener and more sustainable alternative to the waste generating conventional protocols for the synthesis of CC bonds is a challenging goal in current chemical research. In this context, utilization of alcohol dehydrogenative coupling strategy has gained significant importance as it uses bio‐mass derived alcohols as the reagent and produces water as the by‐product. In this article, following the borrowing hydrogen (BH) and acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) strategy, the progress and the improvements of the Ru‐based catalytic systems using various bidentate and tridentate ligands with diverse electronic and steric compatibilities for the CC bond formation are summarized. Following these protocols, synthesis of several alkylated ketones, alcohols, nitriles, amides, and indoles was successfully executed. Utilizing alcohols, development of these Ru‐catalyzed atom‐economical, sustainable, and efficient CC bond formation protocols becomes one of the essential tools in organic chemistry to synthesize numerous value‐added products.
