Abstract

The titrations of HRu₃(CO)₉C₆H₉ (I), HRu₃(CO)₈(C₆H₉)PR₃ (R = C₆H₅, OCH₃) (II), and HRu₃(CO)₇(C₆H₉)(PR₃)₂ (R = C₆H₅, OCH₃) (III) with CF₃S0₃H in CD₂C1₂ have been followed by variable-temperature ¹H NMR. Initial protonation takes place at the metal core, but significant differences in the relative basicities and the rates of inter- and m/ramolecular hydride exchange are observed. In neat sulfuric acid a second protonation of I takes place at the organic ligand to yield a dicationic dihydrido complex H₂Ru₃(CO)₉(HC=CC(CH₃)₃)²⁺. In the case of II two isomeric dications are obtained as kinetic products with subsequent rearrangement to the more thermodynamically stable isomer. In D₂S0₄ gives only the more thermodynamically stable product white deuterated II in H2S04 gives a different isomer ratio than II in H₂S0₄. A mechanism explaining this unusual deuterium isotope effect is presented and discussed.
