Abstract

The indenyl ruthenium thiolate complexes IndRu(PPh3)2SR, (1) [Ind = η5-C9H7; R = Prn (a), Ph (b), CH2Ph(c)] were prepared directly by reacting the thiolate anions (RS−) with IndRu(PPh3)2Cl. The one-pot reaction of IndRu(PPh3)2Cl, thiolate anions and dppa ligands gave IndRu(dppa)SR [dppa= bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane: dppe (2); bis(diphenylphosphino)methane: dppm (3)]. Complexes (1) readily react with NOBF4 in THF at room temperature to give [IndRu(PPh3)(NO)SR]BF4, (4). Complexes (1)–(4) have been characterized by spectroscopic techniques (i.r.,1H-n.m.r., 31P-n.m.r.) and by elemental analysis. The crystal structure of IndRu(dppe)SC6H5, (2b) has been determined by X-ray analysis.
