Abstract
A binding pocket for water is created in 1 by the imidazolyl phosphane ligands and the Ru11 center. Compound 1 proves to be an excellent catalyst for a highly selective anti-Markovnikov hydration of terminal alkynes to give aldehydes rather than isomeric ketones under near-neutral conditions (aldehyde-to-ketone ratio up to 1000:1).
