Abstract
The new triple-bridged dinuclear cation [(?6-C6Me6)2Ru2(?2-p-S-C6H4-OH)(?2-PPh2)(?2-H)]+, isolated and characterized as the tetrafluoroborate salt, was prepd. by reacting the precursor [(?6-C6Me6)2Ru2(?2-H)2(?2-PPh2)](BF4) and p-hydroxythiophenol in refluxing EtOH. The single-crystal x-ray structure anal. of [(?6-C12H18)2Ru2(?2-S-C6H4-OH)(?2-H){?2-PPh2}](BF4) shows the formation of the meso form; despite the 2 stereogenic centers the complex is not chiral. Crystal data: monoclinic, space group P21/n, a 11.2081(7), b 15.0744(11), c 23.6200(16) Å, ? 90.315(8)°, Z = 4, dc = 1.539, 4812 obsd. reflections with I > 2?(I), R[F2 > 2?(F2)] = 0.032, wR(F2) = 0.062.
