Reactions of NaMn(CO)₃ with RuCl₂(PMe₃)₄, RuCl₂(dppm)₂ and RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃ lead either to an ionic species [Ru₂Cl₃(PMe₃)₆]+[Mn(CO)₅]^? or to metal—metal bonded RuMn compounds such as RuMn(μ-CO)₂(CO)₃(μ-dppm)₂ Cl, and, quite unexpectedly, to the μ-phosphido complex RuMn(μ-PPh₂)(CO)₆(PPh₃)₂ via a hydride intermediate.

The molecular structure of dichloro [(-)-2,3-O-isopropylidene-2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane]nickel(II) has been determined by X-ray analysis, and the preliminary isotropic refinement results show the nickel atom to be coordinated by a rather strongly distorted tetrahedron.
