The cationic ruthenium-hydride complex [(η6-C 6H6)(PCy3)(CO)RuH]+BF 4- was found to be a highly effective catalyst for the intermolecular olefination reaction of aryl ketones with cycloalkenes. The preliminary mechanistic analysis revealed that an electrophilic ruthenium-vinyl complex is the key species for mediating both vinyl C-H bond activation and the dehydrative olefination steps of the coupling reaction.
