Synthesis and crystal structure of (µ-H) Ru3(CO)10(µ-NH–CH2Ph). An example of activation of the carbon–nitrogen triple bond
Abstract
The neutral complex (µ-H)Ru3(CO)10(µ-NH–CH2Ph) was obtained by reductive co-ordination of benzonitrile to Ru3(CO)12 in the presence of acetic acid and its structure was elucidated by an X-ray analysis.
