Ru 2 can do it! Substitution of the OH moiety in propargylic alcohols by hydride proceeds smoothly with triethylsilane by catalysis with the thiolate‐bridged diruthenium complex 1 (see scheme; Cp*=η 5 ‐C 5 Me 5 ). This reaction gives the corresponding alkynes in good to high yields with complete selectivity, in contrast to a monoruthenium‐catalyzed hydrosilylation of propargylic alcohols with silanes.
