Oxygenation of a Ruthenium Complex Bearing a PBP-Pincer Ligand Inducing the Formation of a Boronato Ligand with a Weak Ru–O Bond

Abstract: A ruthenium hydride complex having a boroncontaining PBP pincer ligand was synthesized. Oxygenation of this complex by using NMO formed the corresponding boronate complex with a nearly 90°B−O−Ru angle and a long Ru−O bond. A detailed structural and theoretical study revealed BO double-bond character and a very small contribution of a pπ−dπ interaction between Ru and O.

“…To rule out any H 2 evolution 50 from the possible intermediate LB(SH)H species, leading to 3, we performed a stoichiometric reaction between LBH 2 and S. To our surprise, as monitored by in-situ 31 P{ 1 H} NMR measurements, almost half of the starting material was consumed to form only 3 and the remaining half of LBH 2 was present unreacted. This not 55 only supports the intramolecular evolution of H 2 S but also suggests that the insertion of S in the B-H bond of LB(SH)H to be more facile than that in LBH 2 itself with concomitant release of H 2 S from 3. In this respect, the behaviour of Se analogue 4 was found to be similar to that of 3.…”

“…In the presence of CO, 57 exists in equilibrium with (PBP)Ru(Cl)(CO) 2 (58 The alkylphosphino-PBP precursor 1a could also be used for the formation of (PBP)Ru complexes (Scheme 21). 71 Reaction of 1a with [Ru(CO) 3 (cod)] afforded (PBP)Ru(H)(CO) 2 (62) via an oxidative addition of the BH bond. Monoxygenation of 62 was achieved with N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO), furnishing oxygen-inserted hexacoordinate complex 63.…”
