Abstract

[RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3], [Ru(SnPh3)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2], or [RuH(CO)(NCMe)2(PPh3)2]BF4 reacts with K[HB(pz)3] (pz = pyrazol-1-yl) to provide [RuH(CO)(PPh3)22-HB(pz)3}], thermolysis of which proceeds via loss of phosphine and formation of [RuH(CO)(PPh3){η3-HB(pz)3}]. The thiocarbonyl analogue [RuH(CS)(PPh3)22-HB(pz)3}] is obtained from [RuHCl(CS)(PPh3)3] and K[HB(pz)3], thermolysis of which provides [RuH(CS)(PPh3){η3-HB(pz)3}]. In chloroform, this species provides [RuCl(CS)(PPh3){η3-HB(pz)3}]. [RuH(CS)(PPh3)22-H2B(bta) 2}] (bta = benzotriazolyl) results from the reaction of [RuHCl(CS)(PPh3)3] with K[H2B(bta)2]. The hydride-bridged dinuclear complex [RuCu(μ-H)(CO)(PPh3)23-HB(pz) 3}]PF6 results in high yield from the reaction of [RuH(CO)(PPh3)22-HB(pz)3}], with [Cu(NCMe)4]BF4. [Os(C6H5)-(CO)(PPh3)22-HB(pz)3}] (from [Os(C6H5)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2] and K[HB(pz)3]) converts on heating to [Os(C6H5)(CO)(PPh3){η 3-HB(pz)3}].
