CH=CHC6H4Me-4, CH=CHC4H9, C(C=CPh)=CHPh) give high yields of the chelate complexes [RuR(CO)(PPh3)2{eta-2-H2B(bta)2}]. The hydrido complex can also be made by similar treatment of the salt [RuH(NCMe)2(CO)(PPh3)2]BF4, and gives the chloro-derivative [RuCl(CO)(PPh3)2{eta-2-H2B(bta)2}] upon treatment with N-chlorosuccinimide.10enCoordination chemistryInsertion reactionsCrystal-structureDerivativesLigandsOsmiumBenzotriazoleIridium1992-05-1910.1016/0022-328X(92)83253-E0002548384
