The reaction of [RuCl(Cp)(PPh3)2] with Ag[BF4] in tetra­hydro­furan, in the presence of benzyl­amine, leads to the mononuclear title compound [Ru(Cp)(H2NCH2Ph)(PPh3)2]BF4, where Cp is cyclo­penta­dienyl (C5H5). The Ru atom presents a pseudo-octahedral environment with the Cp ligand occupying three facial coordination sites, while the remaining coordination positions are occupied by the P atoms of the two tri­phenyl­phosphine ligands and by the N atom of the benzyl­amine ligand. The [BF4] counter-ion remains uncoordinated.

Comment top

Hydroamination of alkenes and alkynes, which constitutes the formal addition of an N—H bond across a carbon–carbon multiple bond, represents an attractive route to numerous classes of organonitrogen molecules, such as alkylated amines, enamines or imines (Müller & Beller, 1998). Recent advances in catalytic aminations are based on early-transition-metal and f-element complexes (Schaverien, 1994). However, catalytic additions of amines H—NR2 to non-activated double or triple bonds mediated by late-transition-metal complexes are still rare (Schaverien, 1994). In this context, we have synthesized the RuII complex [(Cp)Ru(H2NCH2Ph)(PPh3)2][BF4], (I), to use as a catalyst precursor for amination reactions. The synthesis and crystal structure reported herein is part of this study.

Experimental top

Ag[BF4] (26.8 mg, 0.138 mmol) was added to a solution of benzylamine (15 µL, 0.138 mmol) and [Ru(Cp)Cl(PPh3)2] (100 mg, 0.138 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The color changed immediately to yellow and an off-white solid precipitated. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min and filtered over celite. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue redissolved in dichloromethane and precipitated with hexanes. The yellow solid was washed with hexanes (2 × 10 ml) and dried under vacuum to afford 104 mg (85%) of the title compound.

Refinement top

The NH2 and the CH2 H atoms were located by Fourier syntheses and their parameters were refined [N—H = 0.84 (4) and 1.00 (8) Å, and C—H = 0.96 (4) and 1.08 (5) Å]. All the other H-atom positions were calculated and refined riding on their parent atoms (C—H = 0.93 Å).

Found: C, 64.96; H, 4.89; N, 1.50. 1H NMR (CD2Cl2): δ 7.53–7.03 (m, 35 H, Ph), 6.55 (s, br, 2 H, NH2), 4.55 (s, 5 H, Cp), 2.54 (s, br, 2 H, CH2) p.p.m.. 31P NMR (CD2Cl2): δ 44.48 (s) p.p.m.. 19F NMR (CD2Cl2): δ -152.23 (s) p.p.m..

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
