Abstract
Abstract The synthesis of phosphine–imidazolyl ligands 1 and 2 in good yields is presented. In combination with [{Ru (benzene) Cl 2} 2], ligands 1 c and 1 e formed efficient catalyst systems for the selective hydrogenation of various carboxylic esters into their corresponding primary alcohols. Furthermore, the structures of four ruthenium complexes with ligands 1 b, 1 c, 1 d, and 1 e were determined by X-ray crystallography, which showed the formation of ...
