A novel nitrone‐based pincer ligand was developed by a single‐step synthesis from N‐(tert‐butyl)hydroxylamine acetate and 2,6‐pyridinedicarboxaldehyde. The developed ligand allowed us to synthesize a cationic ruthenium pincer complex. A distorted octahedral coordination environment around the ruthenium center was observed. The complex showed excellent catalytic activity in transfer hydrogenation reactions with turnover numbers up to 590,000.
