The present invention relates to a ruthenium carbonyl complex that is represented by the following Formula (1): RuXY(CO)(L) (1) (in the Formula (1), X and Y, which may be the same or different from each other, represent an anionic ligand and L represents a tridentate aminodiphosphine ligand which has two phosphino groups and a —NH— group), its production method, and a method for production of alcohols by hydrogenation-reduction of ketones, esters, and lactones using the complex as a catalyst. The ruthenium carbonyl complex of the invention has a high catalytic activity and it can be easily prepared and handled.
A ruthenium carbonyl complex that is represented by the following Formula (1):
A method of producing the ruthenium carbonyl complex represented by the Formula (1) by reacting the tridentate aminodiphosphine ligand L represented by the Formula (2) and RuXY(CO)(P(Ar5)3)3 (in the formula, Ar5 may be the same or different from each other and represents an aryl group which may have a substituent group).
A method of producing a ruthenium carbonyl complex represented by the following Formula (6) by reacting RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 and a tridentate aminodiphosphine ligand L represented by the Formula (5):
A method of producing a ruthenium carbonyl complex represented by the following Formula (7) by reacting the ruthenium carbonyl complex represented by the Formula (6) and NaBH4:
