Abstract

A novel complex (p-cymene)Ru(S2C2B10H9)(PhCH=CCH2OCH(Ph)C≡CH)·CH2Cl2 based on the ortho-carborane-1,2-dithiolate ligand and 1-phenyl-2-propyn-1-ol has been synthesized successfully and characterized by IR, NMR, MS, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic system, space group P21/n with: a = 10.221(4) Å, b = 14.912(6) Å, c = 24.182(10) Å, α = 90.00°, β = 99.096(6)°, γ = 90.00°, C31H40B10Cl2ORuS2, Mr = 772.82, V = 3639(3) Å3, Dc = 1.410 g/cm3, Z = 4, F(000) = 1576, μ(MoKα) = 0.719 mm–1, R = 0.0600 and wR = 0.1561 for 5463 observed reflections (I > 2σ(I)). Structural analysis shows that there are the coordination of C=C bond, the formation of C–S bod, and metal-induced B–H activation with the formation of Ru–B bond.
