The hydrogenation of benzene and other arenes under aqueous‐organic biphasic conditions is evaluated using the ruthenium complexes Ru(η6‐C10H14)(pta)Cl2 (pta=1,3,5‐triaza‐7‐phosphaadamantane), Ru(η6‐C10H14)(tppts)Cl2 (tppts=tris‐3‐sulfonatophenylphosphine trisodium salt) and [Ru(η6‐C10H14)(pta)2Cl]+. The active catalysts formed during the hydrogenations correspond to a trinuclear cluster, a colloid and a mononuclear complex, respectively.
