The polymeric precursor [RuCl₂(CO)₂]_n reacts with the ligands, P∩P (a, b) and P∩O (c, d), in 1:1 M ratio to generate six-coordinate complexes [RuCl₂(CO)₂(?²-P∩P)] (1a, 1b) and [RuCl₂(CO)₂(?²-P∩O)] (1c, 1d), where P∩P: Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂, n = 2(a), 3(b); P∩O: Ph₂P(CH₂)_nP(O)Ph₂, n = 2(c), 3(d). The complexes are characterized by elemental analyses, mass spectrometry, thermal studies, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. 1a–1d are active in catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone and its derivatives to corresponding alcohols with turnover frequency (TOF) of 75–290 h^?1.
