Abstract
Well-defined PNNCN pincer ruthenium complexes bearing both strong phosphine and weak oxazoline donors were developed. These easily accessible complexes exhibit significantly better catalytic activity in transfer hydrogenation of ketones compared to their PN3P analogs. These reactions proceed under mild and base-free conditions via protonation–deprotonation of the ‘NH’ group in the aromatization–dearomatization process.
