Abstract: Abstract Most, if not all, of the hydrogenation reactions are catalyzed by organometallic complexes (M) or heterogeneous metal catalysts, but to improve both the activity and selectivity simultaneously in one reaction via a rational combination of the two types of catalysts remains largely unexplored. In this work, we report a hydrogenation mode though H species relay from supported metal nanoparticles (NPs) to M, where the former is responsible for H2 dissociation, and M is for further hydride transferring to reactants. The synergy between metal NPs and M yields an efficient NAD(P)H regeneration system with >99% selectivity and a magnitude higher activity than the corresponding metal NPs and M. The modularizing of hydrogenation reaction into hydrogen activation with metal NPs and substrate activation with metal complex paves a new way to rationally address the challenging hydrogenation reactions.
