Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation reductions using tethered ruthenium (II) catalysts

By asymmetric transfer hydrogenation, substituted quinolines, which are generally regarded as challenging substrates for reduction, were successfully converted into tetrahydroquinolines using "tethered" Ru(II) and "tethered" Rh(III) complexes in formic acid/triethylamine. An ethe...
