[Cp*Ru(μ-NHPh)]2(Cp* = η5-C5Me5) reacted with CO,t-BuNC, Ph2SCH2, or Me3SiCCH to give the dinuclear ruthenium bridging imido complexes [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-L)] (2a, L = CO;2b, L =t-BuNC;2c, L = CH2;2d, L = CCHSiMe3). Protonolysis of2dwitht-BuOH produced the parent vinylidene complex [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-CCH2)] (2e). Treatment of2ewith HOTf or MeOTf afforded the cationic alkylidyne complexes [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-CR)]OTf (2f, R = Me;2g, R = Et). Hydride abstraction from2cwith Ph3CBF4gave the methylidyne complex [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-CH)]BF4(2h). X-ray structures of2a−cand2frevealed short Ru−N distances (1.876−1.894 Å) consistent with Ru−N multiple bonds, and the μ-alkylidyne2falso featured short Ru−C bonds (1.929(7) and 1.914(7) Å). In addition to giving simple Lewis base adducts such as [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-CO)(PMe3)] and [(Cp*Ru)2(μ-NPh)(μ-CH2)(t-BuNC)2], these imido complexes provided an array of novel ligand coupling reactions. Thus,2bunderwent a tandem imido−isocyanide coupling and C−H activation reaction to give an amidinate complex. Complexes2cand2emediated imido−CO−methylene and imido−CO−vinylidene coupling to give [{Cp*Ru(CO)2}2(μ-PhNCOCH2)] (6) and [{Cp*Ru(CO)}2(μ-PhNCOCCH2)] (7), respectively. Complex2calso underwent a selective coupling reaction with 2 equiv of Me3SiCCH to give the μ-allenylimine complex [(Cp*Ru)2{μ-Me3SiCHCC(SiMe3)C(Me)NPh}] (8). The imido methylidyne complex coupled with 2 equiv of alkynes to give [(Cp*Ru)2{μ-HC(R1CCR2)(R2CCR1)NPh}]OTf (9a−c), a product of double alkyne cycloaddition to the Ru−N and Ru−C multiple bonds and C−C coupling of the resulting ruthena- and azaruthenacyclobutene moieties.
