Popis: The activity of chloro(η5-cyclopentadienyl)(didentate phosphine)ruthenium(II) complexes in the catalysis of two types of reaction with allylic alcohols is described. The isomerisation of 3-buten-2-ol to butanone (MEK) and allyl alcohol to propanal proceeds at high rates. A trend in catalytic activity is observed upon variation of the carbon-chain length in the didentate phosphine ligand: dppm
