The interactions of dichlorotris(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II), RuCl2(PPh3)3, with various reagents have been studied and the resulting complexes characterised by i.r. and n.m.r. spectroscopy.The new complexes comprise those of nitriles, RuCl2(RCN)2(PPh3)2, amines, RuCl2(amine)2(PPh3)2, β-diketonates, Ru(β-diket)2(PPh3)2, carboxylates, Ru(OCOR)2(PPh3)2, the halogen bridged dimer [RuCl2(PPh3)2]2 and its acetone solvate and chloro-π-cyclopentadienylbis(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II).
