RuNPs stabilised by amino‐decorated imidazolium‐based polymer immobilized ionic liquids catalyse the dimethylamine borane mediated reduction of quinolines to 1,2‐dihydroquinoline (DHQ) and 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoline (THQ). Partial reduction of 3‐substituted quinolines to the corresponding 1,2‐dihydroquinoline was achieved with 100 % selectivity in toluene under mild conditions. This is the first report of the selective partial reduction of 3‐substituted quinolines to the corresponding 1,2‐dihydroquinolines with a heterogeneous nanoparticle‐based catalyst. A wide range of substituted quinolines have also been reduced to the corresponding 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroquinoline with high selectivity and good yields by adjusting the reaction time. The 1,2‐dihydroquinolines readily release dihydrogen in toluene at 60 °C in the absence of catalyst with no evidence for disproportionation and as such are potential organo‐hydride reagents. The initial TOF of 610 mol quinoline converted mol Ru−1 h−1 for the reduction of quinoline is among the highest to be reported for a metal nanoparticle‐based catalyst and the conversion of 96 % obtained after 4 h at 65 °C is significantly higher than its platinum nanoparticle counterpart PtNP@NH2‐PEGPIILS as well as 5 wt/% Ru/C, which only reached 9 % and 11 % conversion, respectively, at the same time. Hot filtration experiments showed that the active species was heterogeneous.
