A series of octahedral ruthenium(II) parent amido complexes of the type TpRu(L)(L′)(NH2) (L/L′ = neutral and two-electron-donor ligands) and [TpRu(PPh3)(NH2)2][Li] (Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate) have been prepared. Preliminary reactivity studies indicate that the amido moieties are highly basic: for example, TpRu(L)(L′)(NH2) complexes deprotonate phenylacetylene at room temperature to form [TpRu(L)(L′)(NH3)][PhC2] ion pairs, as determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy.
