Abstract
In the title compound, [RuCl(C18H15P)(C26H31N2OP)](CF3O3S)·2C3H6O, the RuII ion is coordinated in a three-legged piano stool, half-sandwich-type geometry by a chlorido ligand, a triphenylphosphine and a tethered η6-(phenyl-p-O-methoxy) κ1-P N-diphenylphosphino N′-diisopropyl amidine ligand charge-balanced by a trifluormethansulfonate counter-anion. The η6-coordination mode of the arene incorporated into the structure was generated in situ after addition of methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate to the neutral η5-arene tethered precursor complex [RuCl(PPh3)(η5:κ1-OC6H4C(NiPr2)=N-PPh2)] in dichloromethane solution.

In the title compound, [RuCl(C18H15P)(C26H31N2OP)](CF3O3S)2C3H6O, the RuII ion is coordinated in a three-legged piano stool, half-sandwich-type geometry by a chlorido ligand, a triphenylphosphine and a tethered 6-(phenyl-p-O-methoxy) 1-P N-diphenylphosphino N0 -diisopropyl amidine ligand charge-balanced by a trifluormethansulfonate counter-anion
The 6-coordination mode of the arene incorporated into the structure was generated in situ after addition of methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate to the neutral 5-arene tethered precursor complex [RuCl(PPh3)(5:1-OC6H4C(NiPr2) NPPh2)] in dichloromethane solution
In our efforts to prepare piano stool, half-sandwich, tethered functionalized η6-arene ruthenium(II) complexes, we investigated the reaction of the ruthenium(II) precursor complex RuCl(PPh3)(η5:κ1-OC6H4C(NiPr2)=N-PPh2)] with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate
