Abstract
Remarkably high selectivities of nitro-group as well as high catalytic activities for the reduction of aromatic nitro compounds affording corresponding amines under CO/H2O conditions are exhibited by using amine(HNR2)-added Ru-carbonyl complexes; the reduction also proceeded without by-producing H2 which was formed by the Water-Gas Shift Reaction.Keywords
