Abstract
A ruthenium complex of the following formula (1), a production method thereof, and uses of the ruthenium complex are disclosed. A method for producing the ruthenium complex includes a process of reacting a specific ruthenium complex with a borohydride compound. The ruthenium complex can be used as a catalyst in a production of optically active secondary alcohols.
