Ligand displacement reactions of the complex [CpRu(PPh3)2Cl] were investigated with N3 terdentate ligands, 4′-phenyl-2,2′: 6,2″-terpyridine (Phterpy) and 1,4-bis(2,2′: 6′,2″-terpyridin-4-yl)benzene (diterpy). The [CpRu(PPh3)2Cl] reacted with these ligands to form stable complexes of the type [CpRu(PPh3)(Phterpy)]X (X = Cl-, PF-6) and [{CpRu(PPh3)}(diterpy){Ru(PPh3)Cp}]X2 (X = CL- PF-6) where the respective ligands coordinate in a bidentate fashion. The X-ray crystal structure of the former complex was determined showing octahedral geometry about the metal center assuming the cyclopentadienyl ligand occupying three coordination sites and Phterpy acts as a bidentate ligand.
