Reactions of Tp(NH[double bond, length as m-dash]CPh2)(PPh3)Ru–Cl with HC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh in the presence of H2O: insertion/hydration products

Abstract

The reaction of benzophenone imine complex (NH[double bond, length as m-dash]CPh2)[Ru]Cl 1 {[Ru] = Tp(PPh3)Ru; Tp = HB(pz)3, pz = pyrazolyl} with HC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh in the presence of H2O afforded the cis-alkynyl(vinylidene) complex [Ru](C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh)([double bond, length as m-dash]C[double bond, length as m-dash]CHPh) 3, as well as two alkenyl ketone regioisomers [Ru]C(CH2Ph)[double bond, length as m-dash]CHC(O)Ph 4 and [Ru]C(Ph)[double bond, length as m-dash]CHC(O)CH2Ph 5. The combination of insertion and hydration process resulted in the unprecedented formation of the alkenyl ketone complexes.
