Abstract: | 8-Quinolinol reacts with Ru3(CO)12 to give Ru3(CO)8(C9H6NO)2 and Ru- (CO)2(C9H6NO)2. A single-crystal X-ray study of the cluster compound shows that the three ruthenium atoms define an isosceles triangle, with two distances of 2.77 Å and one of 3.04 Å. Since both metalated oxygens act as three-electron donors (RuO distances 2.12 and 2.18 Å), the cluster is a fifty-electron species with a formal zero bond order for the elongated RuRu bond. Four other hydroxyhydrocarbylpyridine compounds also give complexes of composition Ru3(CO)8(L)2 which probably have analogous structures. |
