Title:
USE OF A RUTHENIUM CATALYST COMPRISING A TETRADENTATE LIGAND FOR HYDROGENATION OF ESTERS AND/OR FORMATION OF ESTERS AND A RUTHENIUM COMPLEX COMPRISING SAID TETRADENTATE LIGAND
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/138000
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of a transition metal catalyst TMC1, which comprises a transition metal M selected from metals of groups 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the periodic table of elements according to IUPAC and a tetradentate ligand of formula I wherein R1 are identical or different and are each an organic radical having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, and R2 are identical or different and are each an organic radical having from 1 to 40 carbon atoms, as catalyst in processes for formation of compounds comprising at least one carboxylic acid ester functional group -O-C(=O)- starting from at least one primary alcohol and/or hydrogenation of compounds comprising at least one carboxylic acid ester functional group -O-C(=O)-. The present invention further relates to a process for hydrogenation of a compound comprising at least one carboxylic acid ester functional group -O-C(=O)-, to a process for the formation of a compound comprising at least one carboxylic acid ester functional group -O-C(=O)- by dehydrogenase coupling of at least one primary alcohol with a second alcoholic OH-group, to a transition metal complex comprising the tetradentate ligand of formula I and to a process for preparing said transition metal complex.
