The synthesis and characterisation of another example of an air-stable carbene is described, in addition to the preparation of rhodium and iridium olefin and carbonyl complexes. The spectroscopic data indicates that these air-stable carbenes do not display reduced sigma-donor capacity of the carbenic centre. The catalytic applications of these carbenes are explored in the hydrosilylation and transfer hydrogenation processes.

The reaction of 2-aminonicotinaldehyde with 2- or 4-methoxyacetophenone in basic media leads to the new ligands 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,8-naphthyridine and 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,8-naphthyridine, respectively, in high yield. The reaction of these naphthyridine derivatives with [RuCl2(CO)2] n leads to the respective complexes cis-dicarbonyldichloridobis[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,8-naphthyridine-κN 8]ruthenium(II) and cis-dicarbonyldichloridobis[2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,8-naphthyridine-κN 8]ruthenium(II), both [RuCl2(C15H12N2O)2(CO)2], in good yield. Both ruthenium(II) complexes display a slightly distorted octahedron with two cis carbonyl, two cis chloride and two cis naphthyridine ligands, the latter coordinated in a monodentate fashion through the N atom in the 8-position. Both complexes exhibit a moderate catalytic activity in the hydrogen-transfer reaction from propan-2-ol to acetophenone in the presence of a base, with 100% selectivity.

Although the application of arene-osmium(II) complexes in homogeneous catalysis has been much less studied than that of their ruthenium analogues, different works have shown that, in some instances, a comparable or even superior effectiveness can be achieved with this particular class of compounds. This review article focuses on the catalytic applications of arene-osmium(II) complexes. Among others, transfer hydrogenation, hydrogenation, oxidation, and nitrile hydration reactions, as well as different C-C bond forming processes, are comprehensively discussed.
