Highly selective hydrogenation of arenes using nanostructured ruthenium catalysts modified with a carbon–nitrogen matrix

The selective reduction of arenes is important in organic synthesis and also valorization of biomass. Here, the authors report the use of ruthenium-based nanoparticles, which display high activity in arene reduction and preferentially hydrogenate aromatic rings rather than cleaving etheric C-O bonds...
