N2  - The reaction between Ru(O2CMe)2(PPh3)2 and HC5(CO2Me)5 affrded orange Ru(O2CMe)-&#123; C5(CO2Me)5&#125;(PPh3)2, which on standing in methanolic solution in air lost PPh3 and was converted into purple &#123;Ru(&#181;O2CMe)&#91;C5(CO2Me)5&#93;(PPh3)&#125;2O. The C5(CO2Me)5 ligands chelate the ruthenium atoms via two ester carbonyl oxygens. The reaction of RuCl(O2CMe)(CO)(PPh3)2 with Tl&#91;C5(CO2Me)5&#93; in MeCN gave cream &#91;Ru(O2CMe)(CO)(NCMe)(PPh3)2&#93; &#91;C5(CO2Me)5&#93;. The syntheses of &#91;C5(CO2Me)5&#93;&#175; salts of the &#91;Ru(C=CHPh)(PPh3)2Cp&#93;+, &#91;Ru3H(CO)12&#93;+, &#91;Os(NCMe)(PPh3)2Cp&#93;+, &#91;OsH2(PPh3)2Cp&#93;+ and &#91;Re(CO)3(NCMe)3&#93;+ cations are also reported.
