The bidentate ruthenium complex (HO-C5H3N-CO-C5H3N-C5H4N)Ru(CO)2Cl2 (2) could transform to a tridentate product (HO-C5H3N-CO-C5H3N-C5H4N)Ru(CO)Cl2 (3), which further reacted with CH3ONa in the presence of PPh3 to convert to two complexes [(OC5H3N-CO-C5H3N-C5H4N)Ru(PPh3)2(CO)]Cl- (4) and [(OC5H3N-CO-C5H3N-C5H4N)Ru(PPh3)(CO)Cl] (5), via -OH deprotonation. The catalytic coupling cyclizations of secondary alcohols with amino alcohols were investigated, and complex 3 exhibited the highest activity. The coupling reactions proceeded in air with only 0.2 mol % catalyst loading and had a broad scope for the synthesis of pyridines, quinolones, and pyrroles.
