The first second-generation designer Ru(II) catalyst 1b featuring an enantiopure N,C-(N-ethylene-N-methyl-sulfamoyl)-tethered (DPEN-κ(2)N,N')/η(6)-toluene hybrid ligand is introduced. Using an S/C = 1000 in HCO2H-Et3N 5:2 transfer hydrogenation medium, secondary 1-naphthyl alcohols are obtained in up to >99.9% ee under mild conditions. Mechanistic factors are discussed.
