Abstract

The reactions of triethylamine and ethyldiisopropylamine with RU~(CO)p'r~om oted by Fe2(C0)4(P- (C6H5)3)z(p-SCH2CHa3t) 27 0 "C have been studied. In addition to the previously reported major product (p-H)(p3-qz-CH3C=NCH2CH3)R~3(l()C,t 0h)e 9th ree other triruthenium products formed, (p-H)(p3- q3-CH2CH=NCH2CH3)Ru3(CO(2))g, (p-H)(p3-q3-CH3CC(H)C=N(CHzCH3)z)Ru3(3()C, Oa)ngd (p- H)(p3-q3-(CH3CHz)zN=C(H)C(H)CCHZ)(R4~),3 h(avCeO b)egen characterized by spectroscopic methods and in the case of 3 and 4 by solid-state structural investigations. Compounds 1 and 2 are structural isomers, both of which have undergone alkyl cleavage, while 3 and 4 result from C-C coupling of a Cz fragment to a (C2H4)N(CH2CH3f)r2a gment. In the reaction of the bulkier ethyldiisopropylamine under the same conditions as above, only two triruthenium-amine products are formed, (p-H),(p3-q2-HCC=N(CH- (CH3)2)2R~3(C0(5))9 a nd (p-H)(p3-sz-CC=N(CH(CH3)z)zRu3(6()C, wO)higc h were characterized by solid- state structural investigations and spectroscopic methods. It was found that 5 converts cleanly to 6 on heating, while the isomeric 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 do not interconvert.

Least-squares refinement based on 3358 observed reflections gave a final R value of 0.043 (R, = 0.054).
