A solution of phenyldiazomethane (2 equivalents) in dichloromethane was added to a mixture of [η6-(p-cymene)RuCl]2 (1 equivalent) and tricyclohexyl phosphine (2 equivalents), also in dichloromethane, at 195 K under nitrogen. The mixture was then allowed to warm up slowly to room temperature, the solvent was removed under vacuum and the remaining solid (the target ruthenium complex) was washed with ether. The ether wash, being kept at ca 248 K (in a freezer) for several weeks, yielded the crystals of (II).
All H atoms were refined in an isotropic approximation; bond distances Csp2—H from 0.91 (2) to 0.99 (2) Å, Csp3—H from 0.96 (2) to 1.01 (2) Å.

Experimental. The data collection nominally covered over a hemisphere of reciprocal space, by a combination of four sets of ω scans; each set at different ϕ and/or 2θ angles and each scan covering 0.3° in ω. Crystal decay was monitored by repeating 50 initial frames at the end of data collection and comparing duplicate reflections. Crystal to detector distance 4.5 cm. |
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. |

The character of the P≐N bond in iminophosphoranes is usually described by the resonance of two canonical forms, the ylide R3P+—N-X and the iminophosphorane proper R3P═NX. The relative contributions of the two, i.e. the multiplicity of the bond, are easily affected by the nature of the substituents, the overall molecular charge, hydrogen bonds and weak intermolecular interactions. Thus, diffraction studies of iminotriphenylphosphorane, (I), revealed two different, but similar, polymorphs with significantly different P≐N bond lengths of 1.524 (3) Å (Grün et al., 1996) and 1.582 (2) Å (Davidson et al., 1998). The exact nature of the π component of the bond and the role in it of the d orbitals of the phosphorus atom remain a subject of controversy (Johnson, 1993). Herein we report the structure of the title salt, (II), obtained as an incidental by-product in a synthesis of a ruthenium carbene complex, which can add useful data to the discussion. \sch
The asymmetric unit of (II) comprises one cation and one chloride anion (Fig. 1), linked by a strong hydrogen bond (Table 2). It is noteworthy that there are no hydrogen bonds involving the NH group in the crystal structure of either polymorph of (I).
The P—N1—N2—C7—C1 moiety is approximately planar, and the displacements of these atoms from their mean plane do not exceed 0.1 Å. The non-weighted mean plane makes a dihedral angle of 25.1 (1)° with the plane of the adjacent phenyl ring. The N2═C7 bond distance [1.285 (2) Å] is close to the standard value for the double bond, 1.279 (8) Å (Allen et al., 1987). The N1—N2 distance [1.399 (1) Å] is similar to that of the single bond in N-protonated benzalazine (Noltemeyer et al., 1983) 1.402 (8) Å, which also has a transoid conformation. Thus, the resonance is restricted mainly to the two canonical forms with the positive charge localized on either the P or the N1 atoms, viz. Cy3P+—NH—N═CHPh or Cy3P═ NH+—N═CHPh. The P≐N distance of 1.651 (1) Å in (II) indicates a considerable shift towards the ylide structure compared to (I), although it is still a long way shorter than the purely single P—N bond of 1.769 Å (Bart et al., 1982). Protonation of an iminophosphorane molecule is known to produce such a shift: compare P═N 1.603 Å in Ph3PNPh (Böhm et al., 1988) to 1.624–1.628 Å in Ph3PN+HPh (Böhm et al., 1988; Llamas-Saiz et al., 1992). The only previously studied cation with a PN(H)N chain, Ph3P+—NH—NMe2 (Stoldt & Kreher, 1978), displays the bond distances P—N 1.640 (3) and N—N 1.425 (4) Å.
