Intramolecular combination of vinyl, aryl and carbonyl ligands in ruthenium(II) complexes: a mechanistic study

Complexes underwent competing isomerisation reactions, one an intramolecular construction of a vinyl aryl ketone which remains co-ordinated, the other a simple redistribution of the ligands around the metal.Product ratios are determined by kinetic rather than thermodynamic factors.For a sequence of complexes with L = L' = PMe2Ph, electron-releasing substituents on the vinyl ligand favour formation of ketone complexes, whereas similar substituents on the phenyl ligand have the reverse effect.Increasing the reaction temperature disfavours ketone complex formation.Mechanisms involving initial migration of either the vinyl or the aryl ligand are discussed on the basis of these results and a complementary study involving trapping of the likely acyl intermediates.

Preparation, Isomerization, and Reactions of Hydride Complexes of Ruthenium(II)

Hydride complexes 2> (X = H or Cl, L = PMe2Ph or AsMe2Ph) and their deuteride analogues have been prepared.The complex exists in solution as an equilibrium mixture of isomers.The dideuteride exchanges with H2 in solution: no is formed, suggesting that exchange occurs via .Exchange also occurs with ethene and propene: here is observed.Ethene is hydrogenated by 2>, with formation of ethane and complexes 2>, which are reconverted to 2> by H2.The terminal alkenes 1-hexene and 3-phenylpropene are isomerized by 2>: for L = AsMe2Ph, a little hydrogenation of 3-phenylpropene also occurs.
