Halide substitution of the complexes [(Ind)Ru(L2)X] {Ind = η5-C9H7. 1: (L2) = dppf [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene], X = Cl; 2: (L2) = dppm [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)methane], X = Cl; and 18: (L2) = (CO)2, X = I} with the 1,1-dithiolates -S 2CNR2 (dialkyl dithiocarbamates for R = Me, Et, and C 5H10), S2COR (alkyl xanthates for R = Et and iPr), and -S2PR2 (dithiophosphinates for R = Et and Ph) showed that the lability of the indenyl ligand is influenced by the nature of both the coligand and the incoming dithiolate, as well as the solvent. In addition to dithiolate derivatives, the reactions also produced the hydride species [(Ind)Ru(diphos)H] in solvent- and stoichiometry-dependent yields. The observed dependence of lability of Ind on (L2) follows the order, dppf 2, in agreement with the electron-donor capability of L2, as well as the estimation of lowest activation energy for the η5 → η3 ring slippage process in the series of complexes [(Ind)Ru(L)2(S2COMe)] (L = PMeH2, PH3, CO) for L = CO. The computational study also indicated an indenyl lability order for dithiolate substitution (dithiocarbamate > xanthate), in agreement with experimental findings. The dissociation of the indenyl ligand in chloro substitution of 1 by -S 2CNEt2 was found to be exhaustive in a polar solvent like MeOH, but only partial in CH2Cl2. Cyclic voltammetry experiments indicated that [(Ind)Ru(dppf)(η1-S2COiPr)] (10) and [(Ind)Ru(dppf)(η1-S2PPh2)] (13) can be oxidized in one-electron chemical irreversible or chemical reversible processes, respectively (at a scan rate of 100 mV/s), at about 0 V versus Fc/Fc+. Complex 13 underwent additional one-electron oxidation processes at +0.5 and +0.8 V versus Fc/Fc+. The new complexes have all been characterized spectroscopically, and some (four containing the indenyl ligand and three of the non-indenyl type) by X-ray diffraction as well.

Protonation of indenyl complexes (η5-C9H7)Ru(dppm)H and (η5-C9H7)Ru(PPh3)2H with CF3-SO3H or HBF4·Et2O at -60°C gives the η2-dihydrogen complex [(η5-C9H7)Ru(dppm)(H2)]+and the dihydrate [(η5-C9H7)Ru(PPh3)2H2]+, respectively. Upon warming to room temperature, proton shift from the η2-H2ligand of the former to the indenyl ligand and subsequent migration of the metal fragment from the five-membered ring to the six-membered ring of the indene ligand results in the formation of the η6-indene complex [(η6-C9H8)Ru(dppm)H]+. The PPh3analogue [(η6-C9H8)Ru(PPh3)2H]+is formed in a similar fashion, but in this case, the proton shift is from Ru-H to the indenyl ligand. Low-temperature acidification of (η5-C9H7)Ru(dppe)H and (η5-C9H7)Ru (dppp)H yield mixtures of η2-dihydrogen complex and dihydride in both cases. Similar to the dppm and PPh3analogues, η6-indene complexes [(η6-C9H8)Ru(dppe)H]+and [(η6-C9H8)Ru(dppp)H]+are generated upon warming solutions of the η2-dihydrogen complex/dihydride mixtures to room temperature. In the dppp system, the η5→ η6haptotropic rearrangement only occurs after the η2-dihydrogen complex → dihydride tautomerization is nearly completed, whereas in the dppe system the two processes seem to occur simultaneously. The parent hydride complexes (η5-C9H7)Ru(L2)H can be regenerated upon deprotonation of the η6-indene complexes with Et3N. Crystal structures of (η5-C9H7)Ru(dppm)H and [(η6-C9H8)Ru(dppp)H]+have been determined by X-ray crystallography; both complexes have three-legged piano-stool structures.

The indenyl complexes [RuX(η5-C9H7)(dppm)] (dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, X = H, D) react with phenylacetylene to give the products of syn addition [Ru{(E)-CH=CXPh)(η5-C9H7)(dppm)] in toluene, in the temperature range 40-80 °C. The indenyl complexes [RuH(η5-C9H7)LL′] (L = L′ = PMe2Ph; L = PPh3, L′ = PMe2Ph; L = PPh3, L′ = PMe3; LL′ = dppe) and [RuH(η5-Me3C9H4)(CO)(PPh 3)] and the cyclopentadienyl complex [RuH(η5-C5H5)(dppm)] do not react with PhC≡CH, even under more forcing conditions. The complexes [RuH(η5-C9H7)LL′] (LL′ = dppe; LL′ = dppm; L = L′ = PMe2Ph; L = PPh3, L′ = PMe3; L = PPh3, L′ = PMe2Ph) and the indenyl-substituted complexes [RuH(η5-Me3C9H4)(CO)(PR 3)] (PR3 = PPh3, PiPr3) react with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to give the alkenyl derivatives [Ru{(E)-C(CO2Me)=CH(CO2Me)}(η5-C 9H7)LL′] and [Ru{(E)-C(CO2-Me)=CH(CO2Me)}(η5-Me 3C9H4)(CO)(PR3)], respectively, in diethyl ether under reflux. The reaction of [RuH(η5-C9H7)LL′] with methyl propiolate yields the α-metalated alkenyl complexes [RU{C(CO2Me)=CH2}(η5-C9H 7)LL′] (LL′ = dppe, dppm; L = L′ = PMe2Ph; L = PPh3, L′ = PMe3) in refluxing diethyl ether. A kinetic study has been carried out for the reaction of the complexes [RuX(η5-C9H7)(dppm)] with phenylacetylene in toluene, by 1H and 31P(1H) NMR spectroscopy. The reactions are first order with respect to the ruthenium complex and to the alkyne. The hydride and the deutende complexes react at the same rate; intermediates are not detectable neither by kinetic studies nor by spectroscopy. The activation parameters, from rate measurements in the range 40-60 °C, are as follows:ΔH? = 17 ± 2 kcal mol-1, ΔS? = -21 ± 4 cal mol-1 K-1. An associative mechanism is proposed for the reaction, which involves the formation of an intermediate from the ruthenium complex and the alkyne under rate-determining steady-state conditions, followed by fast hydride migration and product formation. Due to the lack of reactivity of the analogous cyclopentadienyl complex [RuH(η5-C5H5)(dppm)], the reaction represents a case of indenyl effect. On the other hand, the indenyl and the cyclopentadienyl complexes react at comparable rates with the activated alkyne methyl propiolate.
