Popis: The systems prepared in situ by addition of the corresponding equivalents of the respective phosphine (mono-, di- and tri-dentated), called M2Cl2(COE)4/n phosphine (M = Rh, Ir; and COE = cyclooctene), are efficient and regioselective precatalysts for the hydrogenation of quinoline, isoquinoline, 5,6- and 7,8-benzoquinoline and acridine. The Rh systems were more active than the corresponding Ir ones, being the systems with 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (triphos) more active than those with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe), except for the case of acridine, where the inversed tendencies were observed (Ir > Rh and dppe > triphos). The systems with triphenylphosphine showed the lowest activities.
