Abstract
Reduction of the [Ru(Cp*)(tmbp) Cl] complex (tmbp = 4,4',5,5'-tetramethyl-2 ,2'-biphosphinine) with 1 and 2 equiv of sodium naphthalenide respectively yield a dimeric (Ru(Cp*)(tmbp)](2) complex and a (Ru(Cp*) (tmbp)][Na(DME)(2 )] complex: which were both structurally characterized. Trapping the Ru(0) complex with MeI, Ph3SnCl, Me3SnCl, or H+ affords the corresponding Ru(II) derivatives.
