Abstract
Treatment of [RuCl2(PPh3)3] with N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropylmethylbimethoxysilane (L1) in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature gave a mononuclear ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(PPh3)2Cl2 (κ2-N,N-L1)] (1). Condensation of γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and potassium diphenylphosphine in the molar ratio of 1:1 in tetrahydrofuran afforded phosphine (PPh2)(CH2)3Si(OEt)3 (L2) with ethoxysilane groups. Reaction of [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2]2 with L2 in refluxing tetrahydrofuran afforded a ruthenium(II) phosphine complex [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2(κ-P-L2)] (2). Complexes 1 and 2 were systematically characterized by microanalyses, FT-IR, and NMR spectroscopies. Their structures have been unambiguously established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Immobilization of 1 and 2 on SBA-15 and characterization of these hybrid heterogeneous catalysts were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR, and low-pressure N2 adsorption/desorption measurements. Transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone was also briefly investigated with the heterogeneous catalysts.
