Transition metal complexes of the dipyrromethylidene (dipyrrol-2-ylmethylene) ligand, LnM[C(C₄H₄N)₂], from reaction between ruthenium- and osmium-bound dichlorocarbene and pyrrole: structures of [RuCl₂{CCl(C₄H₄N)}(CO)(PPh₃)₂] and [RuCl{C(C₄H₃N)(C₄H₄N)}(CO)(PPh₃)₂]

Abstract

[MCl2(CCl2)(CO)L2](M = Ru or Os: L = PPh3) with pyrrole forms sequentially [MCl2{CCl(C4H4N)}(CO)L2] and [[graphic omitted])(C4H4N)}(CO)L2]; the latter is protonated by HCl to the dipyrromethylidene complex [MCl2{C(C4H4N)2}(CO)L2].
