Abstract

The synthesis of a new Ru complex (P2C=)RuH(OTf) (11), which contains a carbene/bis(phosphine) pincer ligand is described. Abstraction of the triflate from 11 using Na[BAr4F] results in the formation of an unsaturated, solvent-stabilized Ru hydride species in CD2Cl2. In a toluene/C6H4F2 solvent mixture, the reaction takes a different course and results in the migration of the hydride to the carbene ligand and concomitant binding of the toluene molecule to Ru in a hexahapto coordination mode.
