Ruthenium and osmium complexes [M (ÓCORp) 2 (CO)(PPh3) 2](Rp= CF3, C2F5, or CsFs) are catalysts for the dehydrogenation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively. The catalysis is promoted by the addition of smallamounts of free acid (RpCOOH) and is inhibited by the accumulation of aldehyde or ketone and by the addition of large amounts of acid. In the presence of acid, RpCOOH, the hydride complexes [MH (OCORp)(CO)(PPh3) 2] also function as catalysts. The mechanism proposed for the catalytic process involves solvolysis of the catalysts [M-(OCORf) 2 (CO)(PPI13) 2] to form alkoxides [M (O Aik)(OCORp)(CO)(PPh3) 2] which subsequently undergo a ß elimination to generate aldehyde (or ketone) and form the hydrides [MH (OCORp)(CO)(PPh3) 2]. Acid attack on the hydrides liberates dihydrogen and regenerates the catalysts. Dehydrogenation has been observed to occur with an extensive range of primary, secondary, and cyclic alcohols. Kinetic data have been recorded; the initial rate of dihydrogen elimination increases with increasing boiling point of the alcohol and for the primary alcohols ranges from 7.50 X10-3 mol s-1 (mol of catalyst)-1 (ethanol) to 2.27 mol s-1 (mol of catalyst)-1 (benzyl alcohol) for the catalyst [Ru (OCOCF3) 2 (CO)(PPh3) 2] under optimum conditions. Catalyst efficiency decreases in the sense Ru> Os and CF3~ C2F5> CsFs for a given alcohol under standard conditions.
