Abstract

Two new Ru(II)-complexes [RuH(Tpms)(PPh3)2] 1 (Tpms = (C3H3N2)3CSO3, tris-(pyrazolyl)methane sulfonate) and [Ru(OTf)(Tpms)(PPh3)2] 2 (OTf = CF3SO3) have been synthesized and characterized wherein Ru–H and Ru–OTf are the key reactive centers. Reaction of 1 with HOTf results in the [Ru(η2-H2)(Tpms)(PPh3)2][OTf] complex 3, whereas reaction of 1 with Me3SiOTf affords the dihydrogen complex 3 and complex 1 through an unobserved σ–silane intermediate. In addition, an attempt to characterize the sigma methane complex via reaction of complex 1 with CH3OTf yields complex 2 and free methane. On the other hand, reaction of [Ru(OTf)(Tpms)(PPh3)2] 2 with H2 and PhMe2SiH at low temperature resulted in σ–H2, 3 and a probable σ–silane complexes, respectively. However, no σ–methane complex was observed for the reaction of complex 2 with methane even at low temperature.
