Treatment of RuHCl(CO)(L)3 with a slight excess amount of K[HB(3,5-Me2pz)3] in boiling MeOH solution yielded unusual 3,5-dimethylpyrzaole (Hdmpz) complexes, RuHCl(CO)(Hdmpz)(L)2 (L=PPh3, 1 or AsPh3, 2). Unexpectedly the dissociation of the bonds between the boron atom and the nitrogen atoms of the potentially tridentate [HB(3,5-Me2pz)3]- ligand during the coordination of the ligand to the RuII metal has been observed. In a separate preparation, the RuHCl(CO)(Hdmpz)(PPh3)2 complex has also been synthesized from the reaction between RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 and the monodentate Hdmpz ligand. Complexes 1 and 2 have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR and 1H NMR spectroscopies. Compound 1 has also been prepared by the reaction between RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3 and K[H2B(3,5-Me2pz)2] in boiling toluene solution. The crystal structure of 2 has been studied by X-ray crystallography. The geometrical structure around RuII of 2 is a distorted octahedral structure. The crystal structure of 2 consists of a discrete monomeric compound. It is interesting to find that the sterically-demanding [HB(3,5-Me2pz)3]- or [H2B(3,5-Me2pz)2]- ligands break up during the reaction with the RuII complexes to form the neutral 3,5-dimethylpyrazole complexes. In contrast to these observations, [H2Bpz2]- and [H2B(4-Brpz)2]- ligands form very stable RuII complexes. Elsevier Science Ltd.

The complex Ru(CO)(CH=CHPh)Cl(C5H5N)(PPh3)2 and related alkenyl complexes react in methanol or ethanol to give (E,E)-1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene and the ruthenium(II) hydride Ru(CO)H(Cl)(C5H5N)(PPh3)3.Futher reaction of this hydride with the butadiene results in 1,2-reduction to yield (E)-1,4-diphenyl-1-butene.However, the reaction of phenylacetylene with catalytic amounts of ruthenium hydrides gave the dimer (Z)-1,4-diphenylbuten-3-yne.On the other hand, the reaction of 1,2-diphenylethenylruthenium(II) derivatives in methanol or ethanol gave trans-stilbene rather than the butadiene.Several deuteration experiments were performed in order to elucidate the mechanism of formation of (E,E)-1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene and ruthenium hydride from the corresponding alkenyl complexes.
