Treatment of RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 (1) with (CH2=CH)SnR3 (R = p-tolyl, Me) affords high yields of the coordinatively unsaturated complexes Ru(SnR3)Cl-(CO)(PPh3)2 (R = p-tolyl (2), Me (3)) probably via insertion of the vinylstannane into the ruthenium hydride bond followed by a β-stannyl elimination from the resulting β-stannylethyl complex. The p-tolyl derivative 2 is unstable with respect to a p-tolyl migration to ruthenium, forming Ru(p-tolyl)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2. The molecular geometry of Ru(SnMe3)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2 (3) has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study.
