Ruthenium Gusev™ catalysts
Johnson Matthey's ruthenium Gusev™ catalysts are highly effective bifunctional catalysts for the homogeneous hydrogenation of esters. These catalysts enable ligand-assisted hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of various substrates.
Advantages of ruthenium Gusev™ catalysts:
- Provides cost-effective, greener alternatives to the use of hydrides for the reduction of esters and other carbonyl groups.
- Can be used under mild reaction conditions.
- Minimal workup is required.
