The dication [(cymene)Ru(eta(6)-1-Me-indoline)](2+), 1a, has been synthesized either by the hydrogenation of [(cymene)Ru(1-Me-indole)](2+) or by the reaction of [(cymene)Ru(OTf)(2)](x) with 1-Me-indoline and has been isolated as the triflate or tetraphenylborate salt. Other [(arene)-Ru(indoline)](2+) derivatives have also been prepared by similar methods. [1a](BPh4)(2) crystallized in the space group P1 with alpha = 10.9308(3) Angstrom, b = 14.1874(4) Angstrom, c = 18.4139(5) Angstrom, alpha = 81.800(1)degrees, beta = 75.17 degrees, gamma = 89.50 degrees, V = 2731.19(13) Angstrom(3), and Z = 2. The sandwich structure is slightly bent with an angle between the ruthenium ion and the center of each eta(6)-ligand of 174.3 degrees. Complexes with eta(1)-N-coordinated indoline ligands have also been characterized. The reaction of indoline with Pd(Cl)(2)(PPh3)(CH3CN) in refluxing dichloromethane resulted in the formation of (Cl)(2)(PPh3)Pd(eta(1)-indoline), 2, which was isolated and characterized by spectroscopic methods. Complex 2 crystallized in the space group P1 with alpha = 9.703(2) Angstrom, beta = 10.148(2) Angstrom, c = 13.920(2) Angstrom, alpha = 99.650(10)degrees, beta = 99.230(10)degrees, gamma = 94.560(10)degrees, V = 1325.8(3) Angstrom(3), and Z = 2. The indoline ligand is tilted with respect to the metal-ligand plane, and the five-membered ring of the ligand assumes an envelope-type conformation.
