Abstract

Herein, we report an efficient and highly selective method for the reduction of aromatic, heteroaromatic and halonitro compounds using the readily available and cost-effective Ru/C as a catalyst along with unconventional CaH2 as a source of hydride. In most cases the corresponding anilines can be obtained by simple filtration without further purification. The use of 2-MeTHF and the simple operational work-up constitute a valid alternative to previous methodologies.
