C–F bond activation of perfluoroalkenes by ruthenium phosphine hydride complexes: X-ray crystal structures of cis-Ru(dmpe)2F(F⋯HF) and [Ru(dcpe)2H]+[(CF3)2CC(O)CF2CF3]−
Abstract
The reaction of (CF3)2CC(F)CF2CF3 or CF3CFCF2 with Ru(dmpe)2H2 affords the bifluoride fluoride complex cis-Ru(dmpe)2F(F⋯HF), whereas reaction with Ru(dcpe)2H2 yields the
