μ-(η5 : η5-Fulvalene)-di-μ-hydrido-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyltitanium) and μ-(η5 : η5-fulvalene)-μ-chloro-μ-hydrido-bis(cyclopentadienyltitanium) form a thermally stable complex which catalyzes the intermolecular hydrogen transfer in unsaturated hydrocarbons, in addition to isomerizations and cyclizations. Cyclic hydrocarbons disproportionate under catalysis to saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons, while linear olefins yield predominantly linear alkanes and high molecular weight tar. The catalyst enables the hydrocarbon system to approach the thermodynamic equilibrium through a series of substitution reactions between alkyl- and allyltitanocene-like species and olefins and dienes. The catalytic complex was characterized by UV and ESR spectra. About one half of overall titanium content could be converted to mononuclear η3-allyltitanocene-like species, stable up to 400 °C. This exceptional thermal stability is ascribed to a firmly bound allyl containing ligand.

The Ru(II)-N-heterocycle carbene complexes [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)L] (L = 1-butyl-3-methylimid- azol-2-ylidene) and [RuCl(η6-p-cymene)L(pta)]Cl (pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) showed excellent catalytic activities (with turnover frequencies up to 1116 h-1) in the hydrogen transfer reduction of cinnamaldehyde and several ketones using propan-2-ol/KOH as a H-donor. Similar hydrogenations of trans-stilbene and cyclohexene were characterized by low conversions. The hydrogenation of 4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one and cinnamaldehyde proceeded with moderate selectivities of the formation of the saturated alcohol or of the of C=C hydrogenation (giving saturated ketone or saturated aldehyde). In the case of cinnamaldehyde, the unsaturated alcohol is initially formed; however, subsequent redox isomerization to the saturated aldehyde with the same catalyst diminishes its yield. The hydrogen transfer from formate to 4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one in an aqueous-organic two-phase mixture was also demonstrated.
