Children learn through play, and they learn more than adults might expect. Science experiments are a great way to spark their curiosity, get their minds active, and encourage them to do something that doesn’t involve a screen. 32993-05-8, C41H35ClP2Ru. A document type is Article, introducing its new discovery., name: Chlorocyclopentadienylbis(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II)
In this paper we report the reaction of [Ru(eta5-C5H5)Cl(PPh3)2] with P{CH2N(CH2CH2)2O}3 in the presence of NaBF4, in which, apart from the Cl- substitution, an unexpected P-C bond cleavage in the tertiary phosphane is observed. It results in the formation of [Ru(eta5-C5H5)(PH{CH2N(CH2CH2)2O}2)(PPh3)2]BF4 (1) – the first “piano-stool” ruthenium complex with a secondary aminomethylphosphane ligand.
