N2 - Title full: Cyclopentadienyl-ruthenium and -osmium chemistry. XXVIII. Reactions and isomerisation of 1,2-bis(methoxycarbonyl)ethenyl complexes: X-ray structures of Ru{Z)-C(CO2Me)CH(CO2Me)} -(CO)(PPh3)(η-C5H5) · 0.5EtOH, Ru{(E)-C(CO2Me)CH(CO2Me)}(dppe)(η-C 5H5) and Ru{C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)CH(CO 2Me)} - (PPh3)(η-C5H5) A reinvestigation of the reaction between. C2(CO2Me)2 and RuH(PPh3)2(η-C5H5) and some related complexes is reported. Initial cis addition is followed by conversion into the trans isomer. In the case of the bis-(PPh3) complex, isomerisation is followed by chelation of the ester CO group with concomitant displacement of one PPh3ligand. The resulting chelate complex reacts with CO or CNBut to give the (Z)-RuC(CO2Me)CH(CO2Me) complexes; the (E)-isomer of the carbonyl complex is obtained by addition of C2(CO2Me)2to RuH(CO)(PPh3)(η-C5H5). The 1Hand 13C NMR spectra are not a reliable guide to assignment of the stereochemistry of the vinyl group. Other products isolated from the initial reaction are the bis-insertion product Ru{C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)CH(CO2 Me)} -(PPh3)(η-C5H5) and the 1/2 PPh3/C2(CO2Me)2 adduct. The molecular structures of Ru{(Z)-C(CO2Me)CH(CO2Me)}(CO)(PPh3 (η-C5H5) · 0.5EtOH, Ru{(E)-C(C2Me)CH(CO2Me)}(dppe)(η-C5 H5) and Ru{C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)C(CO2-Me)CH(CO2 Me)}(PPh3)(η-C5H5) have been determined. The cis isomer is monoclinic, space group P21,with a 9.328(8), b 17.385(10), c 10.356(7) Å, β 101.78(3)° and Z = 2; 2107 data with I ≥ 2.5σ(I) were refined to R = 0.076 Rw = 0.085. The trans isomer is triclinic, space group P1, with a 10.404(7) b 11.221(6), c 13.230(9) Å, α 92.67(5), β 110.56(5), γ 106.21(5)° and Z = 2; 2520 data with I ≥ 2.5σ(I) were refined to R = 0.055 Rw = 0.068. The butadienyl complex is monoclinic, space group P21/a, with a 19.655(8), b 8.674(4), c 21.060(5) Å, β 116.22(3)° and Z = 4; 2724 data with I ≥ 2.5σ(I) were refined to R = 0.042, Rw = 0.047.
