Abstract

A new Ru(ii) complex featuring a novel amino-di(N-heterocyclic carbene) CNC pincer ligand, iPrCNC-RuCl2(CO) (Ru-1), has been developed and characterised in depth. Ru-1 forms an efficient and durable catalytic formic acid dehydrogenation system in combination with the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium diethylphosphate (EMIM PO2(OEt)2).
