0 Introduction

Transition metal carbonyl compounds are useful intermediates in the synthesisof important coordination compounds and have applications in homogeneous catalytic reactions such as hydrogenation, hydroformylation and carbonylation[1].The coordination chemistry of numerous nitrogen donor ligands has been extensively studied and theirmetal compounds played an important role in the development of coordination chemistry,resulting in an enormous number of publications,ranging from pure synthetic work to physicochemical[2]and biochemically relevant studies of metal complexes[3-6]and found wide range ofapplications.Furthermore,metal carbonylderivativesof nitrogen donor ligands are important routes to prepare interestingmetal carbonyl complexes[7-8].

Many metal carbonyl cluster compounds have been prepared and their structures have been determined.Triosmium cluster containing phenoxy[9]and triruthenium cluster containingmethoxy[10]have been studied in detail.These clusters maintain a structure based on an equilateral triangle ofmetals and only rarely is an isosceles triangle formed.Our interest in investigation of the reactions ofmetal carbonylswith pyridine derivatives has prompted us to investigate the reaction of Ru3(CO)12with PyCH2COPh.In order to develop a deeper understanding of the structure and reactivity of pyridine-containing alcohol compound, here we report the synthesis,structure and reaction activity ofa new pyridine-alkoxide cluster compound.

1 Experimental

1.1 General considerations

Schlenk and vacuum line techniques were employed for all manipulations.All solvents were distilled from appropriate drying agents under nitrogen atmosphere.1H and13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker AvⅢ-600 instrument in CDCl3.IR spectra were recorded as KBr disks on a Thermo Fisher is 50 spectrometer.Elemental analyses were obtained on a Vario ELⅢanalyzer.The ligand precursor PyCH2COPh was synthesized according to the literatures[11-12].

1.2 Reaction of ligand precursor w ith Ru3(CO)12in xylene

A solution of ligand precursor PyCH2COPh(0.18 g,0.938 mmol)and Ru3(CO)12(0.3 g,0.469 mmol)in 30 mL of toluene was refluxed for 6 h.After removal of solvent under reduced pressure,the residue was chromatographed on an alumina column using petroleum ether/ethyl acetate as eluent.The orangered band was eluted and collected.After vacuum removalof thesolvents from theaboveeluate,the residue was recrystallized from n-hexane/CH2Cl2at room temperature to give the title compound 1 as orange-red crystals(Yield:0.148 g,34.3%).m.p.190.1℃.Anal.

1.3 Crystal structure determ ination

Crystal of the title compound suitable for X-ray diffraction was isolated from the slow evaporation of hexane-dichloromethane solution.Data collection were performed on a Bruker SMART 1000 CCD detector with graphite monochromated Mo Kα(λ=0.071 073 nm)radiation using theφ-ωscan technique.The structures were solved by directmethods and refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures based on F2using the SHELXL-97 program system[13].All non-H atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters.Hydrogen atoms were included in calculated positions riding on the parent atoms and refined with fixed thermal parameters. Crystallographic data and experimental details of the structure determinations are given in Table 1.

1.4 Reactivity of 1 w ith cyclopentadiene in toluene

A solution of 1(0.299 g,0.325 mmol)and cyclopentadiene(0.043 g,0.650 mmol)in 30 mL of toluene was refluxed for 24 h.After removal of solvent under reduced pressure,the residue was chromatographed on an alumina column using petroleum ether/ethyl acetate aseluent.The orange-red band waseluted and collected.After vacuum removalof the solvents from the above eluate,the residue was recrystallized from n-hexane/CH2Cl2at room temperature to give compound 2 asorange-red crystals(Yield:0.06 g,41.7%).1H NMR(600MHz,CDCl3):δ5.28(s,8H, C5H5),3.49(s,2H,C5H5);13CNMR(150MHz,CDCl3):δ 89.3,217.4.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 Synthesisand characterization of com pound 1

Refluxing amixture of Ru3(CO)12and PyCH2COPh in toluene for 6 h resulted in formation of the title cluster compound 1.The equation of the reaction is followed(Scheme 1).

Scheme 1 Synthesis of title compound

The IR spectrum of the title compound showsonly three terminal carbonyl absorptions at 2 047, 1 967 and 1 946 cm-1,indicating the presence of several types of terminal carbonyl ligands.

2.2 X-ray crystal structure

The molecular structure of 1 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.The ORTEP is shown in Fig.1.The selected bond lengths and bond angles are given in Table 2.The title compound crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/c with four molecules in the unit cell.As shown in Fig.1,the molecular structure is a triruthenium cluster,two ligands are simultaneously coordinated to two ruthenium atoms with aμ2-O atom behaving as a three-electron donor. The data show that the three ruthenium atoms form an isosceles triangle with two Ru-Ru distances of 0.280 nm and one of 0.307 nm.This symmetric bonding indicates that the oxygens act as three-electron donors,which in terms of the noble gas formalism means that there will be no Ru(1)-Ru(1)ibond,as shown in Fig.1.The elongated Ru(l)-Ru(1)ibond distance of 0.307 nm may well be a result of this.The structure found is very similar to that of Ru3(CO)8[C9H6NO]2[14]or Ru3(CO)8(μ-OC6H4OMe-2)2[9].The Ru-Ru distancesare slightly longer than Ru3(CO)8[C9H6NO]2(0.277 and 0.304 nm)and Ru3(CO)8(μ-OC6H4OMe-2)2(0.273,0.274 and 0.301 nm).Each pyridyl group is coordinated to one ruthenium atom,and the distance between the pyridyl notrogen and the ruthenium atom is 0.217 5(3)nm(Ru(1)-N(1)).The bond distance of the C(6)-C(7)is close to the bond distance of standard C=C(0.133 7 nm).Obviously,C(6)-C(7)is a double bond.The Ru(1)-O-Ru(1)ibond angle is 90.8°,slightly bigger than the Ru-O-Ru bond angles in Ru3(CO)8[C9H6NO]2(89.6°and 89.9°)and Ru3(CO)8(μ-OC6H4OMe -2)2(89.9°and 90.7°).

2.3 Reactionsof com pound 1w ith cyclopentadiene or indene in toluene

When the compound 1 reacted with cyclopentadiene or indene,dinuclear metal carbonyl complexes[(η5-C5H5)Ru(CO)]2(μ-CO)2(2)or[(η5-C9H7) Ru(CO)]2(μ-CO)2(3)were obtained(Schemes 2 and 3). Complexes2 and 3 are known products[15-16].Complexes 2 and 3 were also characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses(Supporting Information).A plausiblemechanism for the 2 was proposed.First,the reaction of compound 1 and cyclopentadiene produce the coordinatively unsaturated(η4-cyclopentadiene) dicarbonylruthenium.Then the ruthenium hydride [(η5-C5H5)Ru(CO)2H]is formed by activation of the C-H bond of cyclopentadiene.Finally,[(η5-C5H5)Ru(CO)2H] dimerized to form the ruthenium dimmer 2 by eliminating H2.The generation mechanism of 3 is same as that of 2.The results show that the coordination properties of cyclopentadiene and indene are higher than thatof pyridine alcohol.

3 Conclusions

Reaction of PyCH2COPh with Ru3(CO)12in refluxing toluene was investigated.A new triruthenium cluster compound was obtained and determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The reactivity of the title compound reacted with cyclopentadiene or indene was also studied,and the results clearly reveal that the coordination properties of cyclopentadiene and indene are higher than that of pyridine alcohol.
