2013)Synthesis, structural characterization, and catalytic activity of ruthenium(II) monocarbonyl complexes with bidentate Schiff base and triphenylphosphine ligands, Journal of Coordination Chemistry, 66:18, 3229-3240, ] (3), respectively. The molecular structures of 1, 2, and 3·1.5C 6 H 14 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Complexes 1-3 were used for oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones as catalysts in the presence of N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide.
In the title complex, [RuCl2(CH3CN)3(C18H15P)]·CH3CN, the coordination geometry of the RuII atom is distorted octahedral, defined by one P atom from a triphenylphosphane ligand, three N atoms from three acetonitrile ligands and two Cl atoms. The three acetronitile ligands linearly bind to the RuII atom, with Ru—N—C angles of 172.6 (2), 179.9 (2) and 171.4 (2)°.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
