چکیده

Ruthenium trihydrides containing N-heterocyclic carbene ligands display large quantum mechanical exchange couplings in their 1H NMR spectra: DFT calculations are used to explore this phenomenon and to compare them to their phosphine congeners.

One-step entry to olefin-tethered N,S-heterocyclic carbene complexes of ruthenium with mixed ligands.

A series of Ru(II) mixed-ligand complexes RuBr(2)(PPh(3))(2)(N-AyBzTh) (Ay = prop-2-enyl; BzTh = benzothiazol-2-ylidene) (4), RuBr(OAc)(PPh(3))(N-MeAyBzTh) (5), RuBr(OAc)(PPh(3))(N-MeBnBzTh)(2) (MeBn = 3-methylbut-2-enyl) (6) and RuCl(OAc)(PPh(3))(N-MeBnBzTh) (7) have been synthesized from Ru(OAc)(2)(PPh(3))(2) in one-pot condensation and ligand exchange reactions. X-ray single-crystal diffract...

Carbon monoxide-promoted carbene insertion into the aryl substituent of an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand: Buchner reaction in a ruthenium carbene complex.

In the presence of carbon monoxide, ruthenium carbenes give a net insertion/ring expansion (Buchner reaction) into one of the aromatic rings of the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand. In alkene metathesis applications, the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand is both robust and typically inert to reactions with the metal-bound carbene. This unique reaction is completely regioselective. The complexes obtain...

Ruthenium-based complexes containing a benzimidazolium tag covalently connected to N-heterocyclic carbene ligands: environmentally friendly catalysts for olefin metathesis transformations.

Two ruthenium-based pre-catalysts containing an ionic tag covalently connected to a N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand are reported. These novel complexes, bearing a polar benzimidazolium group, are air-stable and can be easily prepared from commercially available reagents. The quaternary benzimidazolium tag allows the efficient separation of ruthenium waste from the metathesis product after r...

Probing intermetallic coupling in dinuclear N-heterocyclic carbene ruthenium(II) complexes.

A series of bimetallic N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ruthenium(II) complexes were synthesized, which comprise two [RuCl(2)(cymene)(NHC)] units that are interlinked via the NHC nitrogens by alkyl chains of different length. Electrochemical characterization revealed two mutually dependent oxidation processes for the complex with a methylene linker, indicating moderate intramolecular electronic cou...

Theoretical characterization of a Ru N-heterocyclic carbene derivative of a polyoxometalate. Enhanced π-interaction in oxide supported TM-organic linkages.

The electronic structure of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) functionalized polyoxometalate [K(PW(9)O(34))(2)(cis-WO(2))(cis-RuLMe(2))](12-) (1) is studied computationally; and its Ru-NHC bonding situation is compared with other monometallic Ru-NHC complexes, as well as other representative carbene complexes. The DFT analysis further supports the low spin configuration, S = ½, as the ground sta...
