The catalytic activities of these complexes were examined in the transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones using 2-propanol as hydrogen source.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAsymmetric Transfer HydrogenationAlkene MetathesisLigandsIridiumSynthesis of ruthenium(II) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes and their catalytic activities in transfer hydrogenation of ketonesArticle37329730210.1007/s11243-012-9589-02-s2.0-84857491437Q2WOS:000302376600010Q3
