The transition metal catalysed reduction of alkenes is generally acheived using hydrogen gas or by transfer hydrogenation from a suitable hydrogen donor.
Here ruthenium act as as hydrogen doner. In a hydrogenation reaction, two hydrogen atoms are added across the double bond of an alkene, resulting in a saturated alkane.Although the hydrogenation of an alkene is a thermodynamically favorable reaction, it will not proceed without the addition of a catylist
Catylist will reduce activation energy
