Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of cyclic imines using [RuCl(η(6)-p-cymene)TsDPEN] (TsDPEN = N-tosyl-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine) was tested with various aliphatic (secondary, tertiary) and aromatic amines employed in the HCOOH-base hydrogen donor mixture. Significant differences in reaction rates and stereoselectivity were observed, which pointed

The reactions of two diaminotriazine ligands 2,4-diamino-6-(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (2-pydaT) and 6-phenyl-2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazine (PhdaT) with ruthenium-arene precursors led to a new family of ruthenium(II) compounds that were spectroscopically characterized. Four of the complexes were cationic, with the general formula [(η(6)-arene)Ru(κ(2)-N,N-2-pydaT)Cl]X (X=BF(4), TsO; arene=p-cymene:
