Molecular Hydrogen Generation from Neat Formic Acid Catalyzed by Ruthenium-Cymene α‑Diimine Complexes.

ABSTRACT: A series of half-sandwich ruthenium-(II) complexes bearing substituted α-diimine ligands with the general formula [RuCl-(p-cym)-(N-N ⁿ )]-(PF₆) was synthesized (where n = 1-7; N-N ¹ = N1,N2-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-ethane-1,2-diimine, N-N ² = N1,N2-bis(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-ethane-1,2-diimine, N-N ³ = N1,N2-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-ethane-1,2-diimine, N-N ⁴ = N1,N2-bis[2,6-bis-(propan-2-yl)-phenyl]-ethane-1,2-diimine, N-N ⁵ = N1,N2-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-ethane-1,2-diimine, N-N ⁶ = N1,N2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-ethane-1,2-diimine and N-
