摘要
Reactions of the vinyl ruthenium starting material Ru(CHCHPh)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2 (1) with 1-aryl-2-mercaptoimidazole (HLa, aryl聽=聽4-chloro-phenyl; HLb, aryl聽=聽4-methyl-phenyl; HLc, aryl聽=聽4-nitro-phenyl) in the presence of sodium methoxide in dichloromethane and methanol afforded [Ru(CHCHPh)(魏2-L)(CO)(PPh3)2] (2a-2c). Treatment of 1 with HL in THF gave [RuCl(魏2-L)(CO)(PPh3)2] (3a-3c) contaminant with formation of styrene as byproduct. Interactions of 1 with HLa in dichloromethane led to isolation of a novel dinuclear ruthenium complex [(CO)(PPh3)(CHNCH2Ph)Ru(渭-Cl)2(渭-S)RuCl(CO)(PPh3)] (4a) via N-H bond addition to styryl ligand. Complexes 2a-2c, 3a-3c, and 4a were characterized by microanalyses, IR, and (1H, 13C, 31P) NMR spectroscopies. The molecular structures of 3a-3c and 4a have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
