Résumé
Two families of arene ruthenium oxinato complexes of the types [(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)Cl] and [(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)(OH<sub>2</sub>)]<sup>+</sup> have been synthesized from the dinuclear precursors [(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)RuCl<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub> (arene = para-cymeme or hexamethylbenzene) and the corresponding oxine LH (LH = 8-hydroxyquinoline, 5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline, 5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinoline, 5-nitro-8-hydroxyquinoline, 5,7-dimethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline, 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline). The molecular structures of the neutral chloro complexes [(η<sup>6</sup>-C<sub>6</sub>Me<sub>6</sub>)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)Cl] (LH = 8-hydroxyquinoline, 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline) and [(η<sup>6</sup>-MeC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Pr<i><sup>i</sup></i>)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)Cl] (LH = 5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline) as well as those of the cationic aqua derivatives [(η<sup>6</sup>-MeC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Pr<sup>i</sup>)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)(OH<sub>2</sub>)]<sup>+</sup> (LH = 8-hydroxyquinoline, 5,7-dimethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline), isolated as the tetrafluoroborate salts, show in all cases a piano-stool arrangement with the arene ligand, the chelating oxinato ligand and the chloro or the aqua ligand surrounding the ruthenium center in a pseudo-tetrahedral fashion. The analogous reaction of [(η<sup>6</sup>-MeC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Pr<i><sup>i</sup></i>)RuCl<sub>2</sub>]<sub>2</sub> with other <i>N</i>,O-chelating ligands such as 2-pyridinemethanol or tetrahydrofurfurylamine did not give the expected analogs but resulted in the formation of the complexes [(η<sup>6</sup>-MeC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Pr<sup><i>i</i></sup>)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-NC<sub>5</sub>H<sub>4</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>OH)Cl]<sup>+</sup> and [(η<sup>6</sup>-MeC<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Pr<sup><i>i</i></sup>)Ru(η<sup>1</sup>-NHCH<sub>2</sub>C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>3</sub>O)Cl<sub>2</sub>]. The neutral and cationic complexes of the types [(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)Cl] and [(η<sup>6</sup>-arene)Ru(η<sup>2</sup>-<i>N</i>,O-L)(OH<sub>2</sub>)]<sup>+</sup> have been found to catalyze the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to give formate in alkaline aqueous solution with catalytic turnovers up to 400.
