Synthesis of phospholyl-bridged heterobimetallic ruthenium hydrides in combination with zirconium and ytterbium and the crystal structure of (THF){sub 2}Yb[{mu}({eta}{sup 5}, {eta}{sup 1})-C{sub 4}Me{sub 4}P]{sub 2 }Ru(H){sub 2}(Ph{sub 3}P){sub 2}

Heterobimetallic zirconium-ruthenium and ytterbium-ruthenium dihydrides, having bridging phospholyl ligands, have been obtained for the first time. Reaction of bis({eta}{sup 5}-tetramethylphospholyl)dichlorozirconium [(TMP){sub 2}ZrCl{sub 2}] with RuH{sub 4}(PPh{sub 3}){sub 3} gave the zirconium-ruthenium heterobimetallic Cl{sub 2}Zr[{mu}({eta}{sup 5},{eta}{sup 1})-TMP]{sub 2}Ru(H){sub 2} (PPh{sub 3}){sub 2}. This compound was transformed into the hydridochloride Cl{sub 2}Zr[{mu}({eta}{sup 5},{eta}{sup 1})-TMP]{sub 2}Ru(H)(Cl)( PPh{sub 3}){sub 2} by the action of CCl{sub 4}. Similarly, reaction of [(TMP){sub 2}Yb] with RuH{sub 4}(PPh{sub 3}){sub 3} afforded (THF){sub 2}Yb[{mu}({eta}{sup 5}, meta{sup 1})-TMP]{sub 2}Ru(H){sub 2}(PPh{sub 3}){sub 2}. The structure of this compound, which has been determined by X-ray crystallography, confirms the trans configuration of the dihydride deduced previously from NMR data. Attempts to isolate products from the reaction of [(TMP){sub 2}UCl{sub 2}] or [(TMP){sub 2}U(BH{sub 4}){sub 2}] with RuH{sub 4}(PPh{sub 3}){sub 3} were unsuccessful, but NMR data show the formation of both heterobimetallic trans- and cis-ruthenium dihydride-uranium compounds X{sub 2}U[{mu}({eta}{sup 5},{eta}{sup 1})-TMP]{sub 2}Ru(H){sub 2}(P Ph{sub 3}){sub 2} (X = BH{sub 4}, Cl) in solution. 19 refs., 1 fig., 2 tabs.
