Some ruthenium(II) complexes of an alcohol ligand tethered to η6-arene group have been prepared. The alcohol-Ru chelate bond of the complexes containing an N,N′-chelate auxiliary was maintained in methanol. The Cl− ion cleaved the alcohol-Ru bond to give the Ru-Cl bond, while bases (OH−, RNH2) abstracted proton of OH bound to Ru affording the alkoxy chelate complex.
