Article Description

The ruthenacyclic carbamoyl complexes [Ru (2-NHC(O)C 5 H 4 N) (CO) 2 (X) (NCMe)] (X = Cl, Br) ( 1 ) and [Ru (2-NHC(O)C 5 H 4 N) (CO) 2 (2-S-Py)] ( 2 ) undergo substitution reactions with organophosphines to afford derivatives which are prone to a redistribution of the phosphine ligand. We have studied these redistribution reactions experimentally and computationally, and proposed an essentially common reaction pathway. The results suggest that the carbamoyl ligand exerts a very strong trans effect.
