Abstract
Treatment of Ru( - CHPh)Cl2(PCy3)2 (Cy = cyclohexyl) with K[N(i-Pr2PS)2] afforded a mixture of Ru( - CHPh)[N(i-Pr2PS)2](PCy3)Cl (1) and Ru( - CHPh)[N(i-Pr2PS)2]2 (2). Reaction of 1 with TlOPh gave Ru( - CHPh)[N(i-Pr2PS)2](PCy3)(OPh) (3), whereas that with NaOMe yielded the Ru(II) hydride compound Ru(H)[N(i-Pr2PS)2][PCy2(η2- C6H9)] (4), in which the dicyclohexyl(cyclohex-3-enyl) phosphine ligand binds to Ru via the phosphorus atom and the C - C bond of the cyclohex-3-enyl ring. The structures of complexes 3 and 4 have been established by X-ray crystallography.
