N-C bond formation between two anilines coordinated to a ruthenium center in -form affording a 3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diimine moiety

Ruthenium complexes containing two anilines or its derivatives, cis -[Ru II (NH 2 C 6 H 5 ) 2 (bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 1 ] 2+ ) and cis -[Ru II (NH 2 C 6 H 4 (4-CH 3 )) 2 (bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 2 ] 2+ ), were oxidized by four molar equivalents of (NH 4 ) 4 [Ce IV (SO 4 ) 4 ]·2H 2 O to give N 1 -phenylcyclohexa-3,5-...

Description
Summary:Ruthenium complexes containing two anilines or its derivatives, cis -[Ru II (NH 2 C 6 H 5 ) 2 (bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 1 ] 2+ ) and cis -[Ru II (NH 2 C 6 H 4 (4-CH 3 )) 2 (bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 2 ] 2+ ), were oxidized by four molar equivalents of (NH 4 ) 4 [Ce IV (SO 4 ) 4 ]·2H 2 O to give N 1 -phenylcyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diimineruthenium( ii ) complexes, cis -[Ru II ( N HC 6 H 4 N C 6 H 5 )(bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 4 ] 2+ ) and cis -[Ru II ( N HC 6 H 3 (4-CH 3 ) N C 6 H 4 (4-CH 3 ))(bpy) 2 ] 2+ ([ 5 ] 2+ ), respectively, through an N-C bond formation between two aniline ligands cis -coordinated to the ruthenium center. Four-electron oxidation of two anilines coordinated to a ruthenium( ii ) center in a cis -form affords N 1 -phenylcyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,2-diimine through an N-C bond formation with N-H and C-H bond activation.
