Eg. Fidalgo et al., Cationic dinuclear arene ruthenium complexes with one hydroxo and two chloro bridges: synthesis and molecular structure of [(p-Me-C6H4 Pr-i)(2)Ru-2(mu-Cl)(2)(mu-OH)][ReO4], INORG CH C, 4(6), 2001, pp. 308-310
The dinuclear complexes (arene)(2)Ru2Cl4 (arene = benzene, p-cymene, durene
, hexamethylbenzene) react in aqueous solution to give, in addition to the
known cationic trichloro complexes [(arene)(2)Ru-2(mu -Cl)(3)](+), the new
dichloro hydroxo cations [(arene)(2)Ru-2(mu -Cl)(2)(mu -OH)](+) which can b
e isolated as the perrhenate salts. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science
