Organometallic cis-Dichlorido Ruthenium(II) Ammine Complexes.

ABSTRACT: Bifunctional neutral half-sandwich Ru^II complexes of the type [(η⁶-arene)Ru(NH₃)Cl₂] where arene is p-cym (1) or bip (2) were synthesised by the reaction of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (dmba), NH₄PF₆ and the corresponding Ru^II arene dimer, and were fully characterised. X-ray crystallographic studies of [(η⁶-p-cym)Ru(NH₃)Cl₂]·{(dmba-H)(PF₆)} (1a) and [(η⁶-bip)Ru(NH₃)Cl₂] (2) show extensive H-bond interactions in the solid state, mainly involving the NH₃ and the Cl ligands, as well as weak aromatic stacking interactions. The half-lives for the sequential hydrolysis of
