Popis: The present paper reports the use of 31P NMR spectroscopy to predict the isomer structures of [bis{4-methoxy-phenyl-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-allylidene]-amino}]-bis[triphenylphosphine]ruthenium(II), also known as bis{(di-p-anisole)-1,4-azabutadiene}-bis[triphenylphosphine]ruthenium(II), complexes. The complexation reaction was carried out under refluxing condition of (di-p-anisole)-1,4-azabutadiene (compound 1), triphenylphosphine (PPh3), and ruthenium chloride in the ratio of 2 : 2 : 1 for five hours. In addition, ruthenium(II) complexes were also characterized using FTIR and UV-Vis spectroscopy to support the formation of ruthenium(II) complexes. 31P NMR spectroscopic study on ruthenium(II) complexes suggested that there are three isomers present after the complexation reaction and all the ruthenium complexes demonstrate octahedral geometry.
