The present invention provides a novel ruthenium complex that is easy to produce and handle and that can be supplied relatively inexpensively, a method for producing this ruthenium complex, a method for producing alcohols and the like using this ruthenium complex as a catalyst, a method for producing carbonyl compounds using this ruthenium complex as a catalyst, and a method for producing N-alkylamine compounds using this ruthenium complex as a catalyst. The present invention pertains to a ruthenium complex represented by general formula (1) RuX1X2(PNP) (NHC)m(Solv)n(1) (in general formula (1), X1 and X2 each independently represent a monovalent anionic monodentate ligand; PNP represents a tridentate aminodiphosphine ligand, NHC represents an N-heterocyclic carbene derived from a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring, and Solv represents a coordinating solvent; and m represents an integer from 1 to 3, n represents an integer from 0 to 2, and 1≦m+n≦3.), a method for producing the same, a catalyst including the same, and methods for producing various organic compounds using this catalyst. |

1. A ruthenium complex represented by the following general formula (1):
RuX1X2(PNP)(NHC)m(Solv)n (1)(in the general formula (1), X1 and X2 each independently represent a monovalent anionic monodentate ligand. PNP represents a tridentate ligand represented by the following general formula (2):(in the general formula (2), R1, R2, R1′ and R2′ each independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an aralkyloxy group, a heterocyclic group or an amino group, and among these groups, an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an aralkyloxy group and a heterocyclic group may have substituent(s). R1 and R2, and R1′ and R2′ each independently may bind to each other to form a ring together with the adjacent phosphorus atom. Q1 and Q2 each independently represent an optionally substituted alkanediyl group or an optionally substituted aralkylene group.), NHC represents an N-heterocyclic carbene derived from a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring, and Solv represents a coordinating solvent. m represents an integer from 1 to 3, n represents an integer from 0 to 2, and 1≦m+n≦3.). |
