Description

Reaction of [(eta-C8H12)RuH(NH2NMe2)3]PF6 with the acids, HX (X = RCOO,NO3), followed by treatment with mono- and bidentate tertiary phosphines provides general, high-yield synthetic routes to complexes of the type [RuXL4]PF6(X = O2CR, R = H, CF3, Ph,L2 = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, bis(diphenylphosphino)propane, L = PMe2Ph; X = O2NO,L2 = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, bis(diphenylphosphino)-propane], and [RuH(O2CR)L4] (R = CF3,L2 = bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, bis(diphenylphosphino)propane]
