The ortho-metalated ruthenium complexes I and II react with ethyleneto give ortho-ethylated phosphite products.Complex II reacts to give products with fiveand six ethyl groups/phosphorus P (0 (2, 6-Et2-C6H3)) 2 (0 (2-Et-C6H4))(III5) and P (0 (2, 6-Et3-C6H3)) 3 (III6), while complex I reactsto mainly give the phosphite products P (0 (2, 6-Et2-C6H3)) 2 (OPh)(III4) and P (0 (2, 6-Et2-C6H3)) 2 (0 (2-Et-C6H4))(III5). Complex II and KOPh are cocatalysts for theselective ortho ethylationof phenol with ethylene. The reaction of I with propylene results in a lower degree of alkylation, ie, P (0 (2, 6-(/-Pr) 2-C6H3))(OPh) 2 (IV2), than is obtained from ethylene. The product of the reaction of styrene with I gives lowmolecular weight polystyrene containing a triphenyl phosphiteend group. A proposed mechanism for the insertion reaction involves phosphite substitution by ethylene, insertion (CC bond formation) of ethylene into the Ru-C bond, ortho-metalation, and finally reductive elimination to give an ethyl group. The proposed intermediates of the reaction are generated by use of acacRh (C2H4) 2 (X),“phosphine
