The synthesis and characterization of a series of ruthenium carbyne complexes supported by either pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) or hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate (Tp) ligands are discussed. Reacting the neutral ruthenium(II) vinylidenes [Cp*Cl(PPh3)Ru(CCHR)] (1) or [TpCl(PPh3)Ru(CCHR)] (2) with excess HBF4 · Et2O yields the ruthenium(IV) carbynes [Cp*Cl(PPh3)Ru(CCH2R)][BF4] (3: R = tBu, 3a; R = nBu

[TpRuCl(PTA)(PPh3)] (1; PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) reacts with phenylacetylene, yielding the alkynyl complex [TpRu(C CPh)(PTA)(PPh3)] (2) or the neutral vinylidene complex [TpRuClC=C(H)Ph}(PTA)] (4), depending on the solvent and the reaction conditions (Tp = hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate). Protonation of 2 with HOTf (OTf = OSO2CF3) in CH2Cl2 yields the dicationic vinylidene compound [TpRuC=C(H)Ph}PTAH}(PPh3)](OTf)(2) (3), bearing a N-protonated PTA ligand. Reaction of 1 with 1,1-diphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol affords the new cationic compound [TpRu(C=C=CPh2)(PTA)(PPh3)]PF6 (5) or neutral allenylidene compound [TpRuCl-(C=C =CPh2)(PTA)] (6), depending on the reaction solvent (MeOH or toluene, respectively). The reactivity of complexes 5 and 6 toward tertiary phosphines (PTA and PPh2Me) has been investigated. Remarkably, both the cationic and the neutral allenylidene compounds undergo regioselective nucleophilic attack at the allenylidene C-alpha position to give the sigma-allenyl-phosphonium complexes [TpRuC(L)=C=CPh2}(PTA)(PPh3)]PF6 (L = PPh2Me (8), PTA (9)) and [TpRuClC(L)= C=CPh2}(PTA)] (L = PTA (10), PPh2Me (11)), respectively. Noticeably, the reaction goes to completion in the case of the neutral allenylidene complex 6, whereas an equilibrium between the phosphonioallenyl adduct and the educt species is observed in the case of the cationic allenylidene compound 5. The thermodynamic parameters for such an equilibrium have been determined by NMR methods at different temperatures. Finally, the hydrolysis of the neutral allenylidene 6 has been briefly considered, showing the formation of the carbonyl compound [TpRuCl(CO)-(PTA)] (7).

Tp(PPh3)Ru(eta (2)-O2CCHPh2) (1) [Tp = tris(pyrazolyl)borate] has been prepared by the reaction of TpRu(Cl)(PPh3)(2) with 1.2 equiv of NaO2CCHPh2. Complex 1 reacts with diphenylcyclopropene to generate the metallacycle Tp(PPh3)Ru[kappa (2)-(C,O)-C(double bond CHCHPh2)OC(CHPh2)double bondO] (2). A trace of the carbene Tp(PPh3)(eta (1)-O2CCHPh2)Ru double bond CHCH double bondC(Ph)(2) (3) is also observed in the crude reaction mixture. Compound I reacts with phenyldiazomethane to form the benzylidene Tp(PPh3)(eta (1)-O2CCHPh2)Ru double bond CHPh (4). A similar species is also available by the reaction between AgO2CCHPh2 and Tp(PCy3)(Cl)Ru double bond CHCH double bondC(CH3)(2) (5), which affords Tp(PCy3)(eta (1)-O2CCHPh2)Ru double bond CHCH double bondC(CH3)(2) (6). With the addition of an excess of HCl, complexes 4 and 6 release free HO2CCHPh2 and are converted to Tp(PPh3)(Cl)Ru double bond CHPh (7) and complex 5, respectively. The reaction of I with phenylacetylene yields the five-membered chelate TP(PPh3)Ru[kappa (2)-(C,O)-C(double bond CHPh)OC(CHPh2)double bondO] (8). Complex 8 is also formed in the reaction of Tp(PPh3)(Cl)Ru double bondC double bond CHPh with 1.2 equiv of AgO2CCHPh2. Compounds 1, 2, and 8 have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. Complexes 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 do not catalyze olefin metathesis reactions, while 4 is an active initiator for the ring-opening metathesis polymerization of norbornene.
