Pentamethylcyclopentadienylruthenium complexes

Structure of [η-C5(CH3)5]RuCl2(NC5H5)

“…The structure of [{r/-Cs-(CH3)5}RuCI(tz-C1)]2 is similar to its Rh analogue (Koelle & Kossakowski, 1989;Churchill, Julis & Rotella, 1977). [r/-Cs(CH3)5]RuC12(NCsHs) …”

Formation and structural study of a mixed ene/enyl ligand on reaction of [Ru(C5Me5)Cl2]2 with 1,3-cyclononadiene

“…MS (EI, 70 eV) m=z (relative intensity): 230 (10), 231 (12), 231 (12), 233 (14), 281 (17), 315 (14), 326 (11), 327 (15), 328 (17) …”

“…Ethanol was distilled from calcium hydride. 1,3-cyclononadiene [13,14] and [Ru(C 5 Me 5 )Cl 2 ] 2 [15] were prepared following published procedures. Elemental analysis results were obtained from Desert Analytics.…”

HMB and Cp* ruthenium(II) complexes containing bis- and tris-(mercaptomethimazolyl)borate ligands: Synthetic, X-ray structural and electrochemical studies (HMB=η6-C6Me6, Cp*=η5-C5Me5)

“…Elemental analyses were carried out by the microanalytical laboratory inhouse. Potassium hyrdotris(methimazolyl)borate (KTm, where Tm = [HB(mt) 3 ], i.e., [(C 4 H 5 N 2 S) 3 BH]) [20], sodium hydrobis(methimazolyl)borate(NaBm, where Bm = [H 2 B-(mt) 2 ], i.e., [(C 4 H 5 N 2 S) 2 BH 2 ]) [5i] [(HMB)RuCl 2 ] 2 and Cp*RuOMe (Cp* = C 5 Me 5 ) were synthesized as reported in the literature [21,22]. 2-Mercapto-1-methimazolyl was used as purchased from Lancaster Synthesis Ltd and RuCl 3 AE 3H 2 O was used as purchased from Pressure Chemical Co.…”
