Catalytic dehydrogenation of benzylic and other primary amines RCH2NH2 to the corresponding nitriles RCN by the system trans-2-/S2O82- has been investigated.The complex cis-2+ and the new cis-2+ (R = o-, m- or p-ClC6H4, o-MeC6H4, o- or p-MeOC6H4); cis-2+ (R = Ph or p-MeOC6H4) and cis-2+ have been made, and dehydrogenation of the co-ordinated amine in the ruthenium complexes to the corresponding nitriles in cis-2+ (L-L = bipy or phen) by peroxodisulfate demonstrated.The crystal structures of cis-*0.5MeOH and cis-2*CH2Cl2, the latter a product of co-ordinated amine dehydrogenation by peroxodisulfate to give cis-2+, were determined.Raman, infrared and 1H NMR data for the complexes have been measured; the latter suggest that the cis configurations of the amine complexes are retained in solution.
