Structure and catalytic activity of the ruthenium(I) sawhorse-type complex [Ru₂{μ,η²-CF₃(CF₂)₅COO}₂(DMSO)₂(CO)₄]

T. K. Zimmermann, S. Haslinger, A. Pöthig and F. E. Kühn

A sawhorse-type dinuclear ruthenium complex with two bridging perfluoroheptanoate ligands and two dimethyl sulfoxide ligands in the axial positions is a new example of a compound with an aliphatic fluorinated carboxylate ligand and a direct Ru—Ru interaction. The compound is an active catalyst in transvinylation of propionic acid with vinyl acetate.

Keywords: crystal structure; perfluoroheptanoate; Ru—Ru bond; dinuclear Ru₂ complex; ruthenium(I) sawhorse-type complexes; catalytic investigation; transvinylation catalyst.
