The present invention relates to the field of catalytic hydrogenation and, more particularly, to the use of specific ruthenium catalysts or pre-catalysts in hydrogenation processes for the reduction of ketones, aldehydes, esters or lactones into their corresponding alcohols or diols respectively. The preferred catalysts are ruthenium complexes comprising a ligand of the type (N—N) type and a ligand of the type (P—PO).
本发明涉及催化加氢领域,更具体地涉及在加氢过程中使用特定的
钌催化剂或前驱体,用于将酮、醛、酯或内酯还原为相应的醇或二醇。首选催化剂是包含(N—N)型
配体和(P—PO)型
配体的
钌配合物。
