Popis: | The reaction of RuCl2(PPh3)3 with pyrrolyllithium results in the formation of the pyrrolyl complex (NC4H4)RuCl(PPh3)2, 1, which has been characterized by an X-ray diffraction study. The structure confirms the η5-bonding mode for the pyrrolyl ligand. Ligand substitution reactions with 1 have led to the facile synthesis of related η5-pyrrolyl ruthenium complexes with other suppporting ligands. Reactions of the PEt3 derivatives (NC4H4)RuX(PEt3)2, X = Cl and I, with aryl- and alkyllithium reagents resulted in nucleophilic substitution of the pyrrolyl ligand accompanied by hydrogen transfer to the metal ion, forming (2-RNC4H3)RuH(PEt3)2. The hydride products could be converted to the corresponding chloride derivatives in chlorinated solvents, and the complex (2-PhNC4H3)RuCl(PEt3)2 has been structurally characterized. A second nucleophilic substitution reaction on the coordinated pyrrolyl ligand has been characterized in some cases, and protonation of the substituted pyrrole complex led to isolation of the free... |
