The selective conversion of alcohols to alkanes and alkenes is a captivating but extremely difficult process. Herein, we explored the activity of an acridine-derived SNS–Ru pincer complex in the selective conversion of primary alcohols into both long-chain alkenes and alkanes. Both homo- and cross-coupling reactions provide good yields of the desired products with excellent selectivity. Various control
