Abstract

Title full: Structural studies on ruthenium carbonyl hydrides. XVIII. Synthesis and characterization of (μ-H)Ru333-XCCRCR′) (CO)9-n(PPh3)n complexes. Crystal structures of (μ-H)Ru333-Et2 NCCHCMe)(CO)8(PPh3) and (μ-H)Ru333-MeOCCMeCMe)(CO )7(PPh3)2·2CH2Cl 2. Substitution products HRu333-XCCRCR′)(CO) 9-n(PPh3)n (X OMe, R R′ Me, n = 1-3; X OMe, R H, R′ OEt, n = 2, 3; X NEt2, R H, R′ Me, n = 1, 2) were prepared by using ONMe3-induced ligand substitution. The products were characterized by spectroscopic methods. In addition, (μ-H)Ru333-Et2 NCCHMe)(CO)8(PPh3) (Mo Kα, 2θ 5.0-50.0°, Rf 5.22% for all 6,374 reflections, 2.62% for those 4,306 reflections with | Fo | ≫ 6σ( | Fo | )) and (μ-H)Ru333-MeOCCMeCMe)(CO )7(PPh3)2·2CH2Cl 2 (Mo Kα, 2θ 8.0-45.0°, RF 9.52% for all 6,798 reflections, 6.69% for those 3,795 reflections with | Fo | ≫ 6σ( | Fo |)) were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both compounds crystallize in the triclinic space group P1, with a 11.277(2) Å, b 11.899(1)Å, c 15.638(2)Å, α = 70.56(1)°,β = 85.23(1)°, γ = 66.00(1)°, V = 1802.8(4) Å3, and Z = 2 for the former and a = 12.960(2) Å, b = 13.040(2) Å, c = 17.683(3) Å, α = 98.81(1)°, β = 94.50(1)°, γ = 116.50(1)Å, V = 2606.2(8) Å3, and Z = 2 for the latter. In each case the PPh3 ligands are coordinated cis to the bridging hydride and to the sigma RuC bond.
