45. Bäckvall and co-workers showed that the mono- and dihydride processses in the hydrogen transfer between secondary alcohol and ketone are successfully differentiated by the outcome of racemization of an optically active α-deuterated alcohol. If the reaction follows the monohydride process, all deuterium of the racemized product should be attached to the α-carbon owing to the selective deuterium transfer to the carbon of the acceptor ketone, while a half of deuterium will be scrambled with alcoholic proton through the dihydride process: O. Pàmies, J.-E. Bäckvall, Chem.-Eur. J. 2001, 7, 5052.

50. For an unequivocal exclusion of the hydrido mechanism shown in Scheme 3, a model study using an alkoxo-ruthenium may provide pertinent information. However, our attempts to isolate a stable isopropoxoruthenium complex met no success hampering further mechanistic clarification.
