Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Reaction of the purple tetrakiscarbene ruthenium cation [Ru(IⁱPr₂Me₂) ₄H]⁺ (1, IⁱPr₂Me₂ = 1,3-diisopropyl-4,5-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene) with oxygen affords the pink ?²-O₂ hydride species [Ru(IⁱPr ₂Me₂)₄(?²-O₂)H] ⁺ (2). 2 displays (i) a very facile, reversible O₂ coordination and (ii) an unexpectedly positive hydride chemical shift, and both these features can be predicted and explained by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. © 2009 American Chemical Society.
