The novel ruthenium N-Heterocyclic carbene complexes are synthesized, and characterized by studying its H-1, C-13, elemental analysis, and X-ray. These complexes have been reported as promising catalyst for beta C-H bond functionalization of tertiary cyclic amines through hydrogen autotransfers in the presence of external acidic additive. The new catalytic products were characterized by H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR spectroscopic methods. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
