Popis: Synthesis of new air stable octahedral ruthenium(II) carbonyl complex bearing O, and N-bidentate benzhydrazone ligand is reported. It has been characterized by elemental analysis, spectral methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The new catalyst has been effectively applied to the transfer hydrogenation reaction of various ketones using isopropanol as a solvent and KOH as a base at 82 °C and the maximum conversion is achieved up to 100%.
