    Abstract:
    The diacetate complexes trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] (NN = ethylenediamine (en) (1), 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (ampy) (2), 2-(aminomethyl)pyrimidine (ampyrim) (3)) have been isolated in 76-88% yield by reaction of [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] with the corresponding nitrogen ligands. The ampy-type derivatives 2 and 3 undergo isomerization to the thermodynamically most stable cationic complexes [Ru(κ1-OAc)(PPh3)2(NN)]OAc (2a and 3a) and cis-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] (2b and 3b) in methanol at RT. The trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(P2)2] (P2 = dppm (4), dppe (5)) compounds have been synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] by reaction with the suitable diphosphine in toluene at 95 °C. The complex cis-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2(dppm)(ampy)](6) has been obtained from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] and dppm in toluene at reflux and reaction with ampy. The derivatives trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2P2(NN)] (7-16; NN = en, ampy, ampyrim, 8-aminoquinoline; P2 = dppp, dppb, dppf, (R)-BINAP) can be easily synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] with a diphosphine and treatment with the NN ligands at RT. Alternatively these compounds have been prepared from trans-[Ru(OAc)2(PPh3)2(NN)] by reaction with the diphosphine in MEK at 50 °C. The use of (R)-BINAP affords trans-[Ru(κ1-OAc)2((R)-BINAP)(NN)] (NN = ampy (11), ampyrim (15)) isolated as single stereoisomers. Treatment of the ampy-type complexes 8-15 with methanol at RT leads to isomerization to the cationic derivatives [Ru(κ2-OAc)P2(NN)]OAc (8a-15a; NN = ampy, ampyrim; P2 = dppp, dppb, dppf, (R)-BINAP). Similarly to 2, the dipivalate trans-[Ru(κ1-OPiv)2(PPh3)2(ampy)] (18) is prepared from [Ru(κ2-OPiv)2(PPh3)2] (17) and ampy in CHCl3. The pincer acetate [Ru(κ1-OAc)(CNNOMe)(PPh3)2] (19) has been synthesized from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2] and HCNNOMe ligand in 2-propanol with NEt3 at reflux. In addition, the dppb pincer complexes [Ru(κ1-OAc)(CNN)(dppb)] (CNN = AMTP (20), AMBQPh (21)) have been obtained from [Ru(κ2-OAc)2(PPh3)2], dppb, and HAMTP or HAMBQPh with NEt3, respectively. The acetate NN and pincer complexes are active in transfer hydrogenation with 2-propanol and hydrogenation with H2 of carbonyl compounds at S/C values of up to 10000 and with TOF values of up to 160000 h-1.
