Cooperative B-H bond activation: dual site borane activation by redox active κ²-N,S-chelated complexes.

ABSTRACT: Cooperative dual site activation of boranes by redox-active 1,3-N,S-chelated ruthenium species, mer-[PR₃{κ²-N,S-(L)}₂Ru{κ¹-S-(L)}], (mer-2a: R = Cy, mer-2b: R = Ph; L = NC₇H₄S₂), generated from the aerial oxidation of borate complexes, [PR₃{κ²-N,S-(L)}Ru{κ³-H,S,S'-BH₂(L)₂}] (trans-mer-1a: R = Cy, trans-mer-1b: R = Ph; L = NC₇H₄S₂), has been investigated. Utilizing the rich electronic behaviour of these 1,3-N,S-chelated ruthenium species, we have established that a combination of redox-active ligan
