Key Points

The aim is to explore a new synthesis method for boryl complexes of ruthenium using a metal-first approach.
Constructed intermediates with bidentate phosphino/phenoxide ligands on Ru.
Reacted Ru complexes with BH3·SMe2 to form boryl/bis(phosphine) complexes.
Successfully synthesized boryl complexes of (POBOP)Ru.
Demonstrated the effectiveness of the metal-first strategy in complex formation.

Abstract

Boryl/bis(phosphine) complexes of (POBOP)Ru were assembled by first preparing intermediates containing two bidentate phosphino/phenoxide ligands coordinated to Ru, followed by their reactions with BH3·SMe2.
