2-Formylpyridine was inserted into the hydridoruthenium bond in [RuClH(CO)(PPh3)3] at room temperature to give cis-[RuCl(OCH2-C5H4N-N,O)(CO)(PPh3)2] (II). Complex II isomerized in refluxing benzene to a thermodynamically-stable trans form. 2-Acetyl- and 2-benzoylpyridines also reacted with [RuClH(CO)(PPh3)3] in refluxing THF to afford insertion products, [RuCl(OCHR-C5H4N-N,O](CO)(PPh3)2] (R = Me and Ph, respectively). These complexes were characterized by means of elemental analysis, molecular weights, and IR and NMR spectroscopy.
