Synthesis and reactivity of dinuclear µ-silyl complexes of ruthenium having three-centre two-electron Ru–H–Si interactions

Abstract

Reaction of [(C5Me5)Ru(µ-H)4Ru(C5Me5)] with R2SiH2 yields the dinuclear µ-silyl complexes [{(C5Me5)Ru(µ-η2-HSiR2)}2(µ-H)(H)]2a, R = Et; 2b, R = Ph, having three-centre two-electron interactions, and pyrolysis of 2b in refluxing toluene affords a dinuclear µ-silylene (silanediyl) complex [(C5Me5)Ru(µ-SiPh2)2(µ-H)2Ru(C5Me5)]3; the molecular structures of 2a and 3 have been determined by X-ray diffraction.
