Abstract

The interaction of N,N′-bis[o-(diphenylphosphino)benzylidene]ethylenediamine (immpho) with one and two equivalents of [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)Ru(CH₃CN) ₃]⁺ (generated in situ from the reaction of [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)RuCl₂]_n with excess Zn granular in CH₃CN) in CH₃CN at room temperature gave [(η⁵-C₅Me₅)Ru(immpho)] ₂[ZnCl₄] (I) and {[(η⁵-C₅Me₅)Ru(CH₃CN)] ₂[immpho]}{ZnCl₄} (II) in 80% and 71% yield, respectively. Upon UV irradiation, immpho reacted with equal molar of [(η⁵C₅H₅)Fe(η ⁶-mesitylene)][BF₄] in CH₃CN at room temperature to give [(η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(immpho)][BF₄] (III) in 41% yield. Compounds I-III have been fully characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods. The structures of II and III have been established by X-ray diffraction.
