The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ru3(C19H17P)(C25H22P2)(CO)9], consists of two independent mol-ecules. The bis-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)methane ligand bridges an Ru-Ru bond and the benzyl-diphenyl-phosphane ligand binds to the third Ru atom. The Ru-Ru bond cis to the benzyl-diphenyl-phosphane ligand is the longest of the three Ru-Ru bonds in both mol-ecules. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ac plane. C-H⋯π contacts further stabilize the crystal packing.

The structures and energetics of the binuclear methylphosphinidene complexes of cyclopentadienylruthenium carbonyls of the type [MePRu(CO)Cp] ( = 4, 3, 2, 1) have been investigated for comparison with their previously studied iron analogues. For the tetracarbonyls and tricarbonyls [MePM(CO)Cp] ( = 4, 3) substituting ruthenium for iron has relatively little effect on the energetically preferred structures. Thus such structures have two-electron donor bridging MeP groups with no metal-metal bond for the tetracarbonyls and a metal-metal single bond for the tricarbonyls.

The field-induced quantum-disordered state of layered honeycomb magnet α-RuCl is a prime candidate for Kitaev spin liquids hosting Majorana fermions and non-Abelian anyons. Recent observations of anomalous planar thermal Hall effect demonstrate a topological edge mode, but whether it originates from Majorana fermions or bosonic magnons remains controversial. Here, we distinguish these origins from combined low-temperature measurements of high-resolution specific heat and thermal Hall conductivity with rotating magnetic fields within the honeycomb plane.

Selective dehydrogenation of ammonia borane to polycondensated BN rings catalysed by ruthenium olefin complexes.

Chem Commun (Camb)

Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences, ETH Zurich Vladimir-Prelog-Weg 1, Zurich CH-8049, Switzerland.

Dehydrogenation of ammonia borane to well-defined products is an important but challenging reaction. A dinuclear ruthenium complex with a Ru-Ru bond bearing a diazadiene (dad) unit and olefins as non-innocent ligands catalyzes the highly selective formation of conjugated polycondensed borazine oligomers (BNH), predominantly BNH, the BN analogue of superbenzene.

The study disclosed that the reactivities of [Ru (PPh)Cl] and [Ru(PPh)(CO)(H)Cl] precursors toward a trimethoxyarylimino-phenol derivative are sensibly different. The former promotes methoxy demethylation reaction affording a [Phenolato-Ru-Phenolato] unit, while the latter containing π-acidic CO and hydride as coligands leads to C-H activation reaction, generating a [Phenolato-Ru-Aryl] unit. Notably, the oxidized analogues of these two forms produce antiferromagnetically coupled [Ru-phenoxyl] and paramagnetic [Ru-phenoxyl] forms, which exhibit diverse reactivities.

A family of edge-sharing bi-octahedral diruthenium(III,III) compounds containing Ru-Ru single bonds.

From paddlewheel starting reactants Ru(R'CO), a family of edge-sharing bi-octahedral (ESBO) diruthenium(III,III) compounds has been prepared, formulated as Ru(μ-OCR')(μ-OR)(η-L) (1-10) [R' = CH, R = CH, L = acac (1), tfac (2); R' = CH, R = CHCH, L = hfac (3); R' = CHCH, R = CH, L = acac (4), tfac (5); R' = CHCH, R = CHCH, L = hfac (6); R' = CHCl, R = CH, L = tfac (7); R' = CHCl, R = CHCH, L = hfac (8); R' = CH, R = CH, L = tfac (9); and R' = H, R = CH, L = acac (10); here, acac, tfac and hfac represent acetylacetone, trifluoroacetylacetone and hexafluoroacetylacetone, respectively]. Compounds 1-10 have a similar ESBO coordination geometry of the Ru(μ-OCR')(μ-OR)Ru core with a Ru-Ru center chelated and bridged by two μ-OCR' and two μ-OR in a manner, and each Ru center is also coordinated with a η-L bidentate ligand. The Ru-Ru distances fall in the range of 2.
