Abstract

The new vinyl carbene salt [Ru(=CαHCβH=Cγ - Ph2)(CO)(S2CNMe2)(PPh3) 2]PF6 (obtained from [RuH-Cl(CO)(PPh3)3], HC=CCPh2OH, Na[S2CNMe2J, and HPF6) reacts with fluoride, alkoxide, borohydride and hydroxide at Cγ to give γ-functionalized σ-vinyl complexes, but with dithiocarbamate salts, attack occurs at Cα to provide the structurally characterized metallacycle [Ru{CH(CH=CPh2)SC(NMe2)S}(S2CNMe 2)(CO)(P-Ph3)].
