Abstract

Abstract New 3 rd generation designer ansa ‐ruthenium(II) complexes featuring N , C ‐alkylene‐tethered N , N ‐dialkylsulfamoyl‐DPEN/η 6 ‐arene ligands, exhibited good catalytic performance in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of various classes of (het)aryl ketones in formic acid/triethylamine mixture. In particular, benzo‐fused cyclic ketones furnished 98 to &gt;99.9% ee using a low catalyst loading. magnified image
