The cation of the title salt, [Ru(η5-C5Me5)(NCMe){(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]PF6 or [Ru(C10H15)(C26H4F20P2)(C2H3N)]PF6, has contacts with three anions. One lies close to the penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl ring, such that three F atoms of the anion are ca 3.5 Å from two of the ring meth­yl C atoms of the cation and there is one H⋯F distance shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii.

Comment

Salts of the cation [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]+ have been found to undergo intra­molecular dehydro­fluorinative C–C reactions on thermolysis or in the presence of a proton sponge or fluoride, to yield [{η5,κP,κP-C5Me4CH2C6F4-2-P(C6F5)CH2CH2P(C6F5)2}RhCl]+ and then [{η5,κP,κP-C5Me3[CH2C6F4-2-P(C6F5)CH2]-1,3}RhCl]+ (Ath­erton et al., 1996[Atherton, M. J., Fawcett, J., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., Karaçar, A., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1996). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 3215-3220.]; Bellabarba et al., 2001[Bellabarba, R. M., Nieuwenhuyzen, M. & Saunders, G. C. (2001). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 512-514.]). The thermolysis is dependent on the solvent and the anion. The reaction for the tetra­fluoro­borate salt occurs only in polar protic solvents, such as ethanol, whereas for chloride, hexa­fluoro­phosphate and tetra­phenyl­borate salts, the reaction also occurs readily in non-polar aprotic solvents, such as benzene (Atherton et al., 1999[Atherton, M. J. Fawcett, J., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., Russell, D. R. & Saunders G. C. (1999). J. Organomet. Chem. 582, 163-172.]).

The structure of [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]BF4 revealed that a tetra­fluoro­borate anion is positioned close to the penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl ligand, such that three F atoms of the anion form a plane almost parallel (5.1° deviation) to the C5 plane, with a separation between the two planes of ca 3.19 Å. The anion is displaced slightly from the (η5-C5Me5)–Rh axis, giving rise to short F⋯H and F⋯C distances between the anion and the penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl ligand of 2.4–2.7 and 3.1–3.3 Å, respectively (Atherton et al., 1996[Atherton, M. J., Fawcett, J., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., Karaçar, A., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1996). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 3215-3220.]). A similar positioning of the anion and cation is found in the related salts [(η5-C5Me5)IrCl{(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]BF4 (Atherton et al., 1996[Atherton, M. J., Fawcett, J., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., Karaçar, A., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1996). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 3215-3220.]) and [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6H3F2-2,6)2PCH2CH2P(C6H3F2-2,6)2}]BF4 (Fawcett et al., 1998[Fawcett, J., Friedrichs, S., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., McKee, V., Nieuwenhuyzen, M., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1998). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 1477-1484.]). If BF4⋯C5Me5 inter­actions are present in aprotic solvents, then the absence of similar anion⋯C5Me5 inter­actions in the salts of the other anions may provide the basis for an explanation for the difference in reactivity. Of particular relevance is the salt of the hexa­fluoro­phosphate anion, which is the most similar to the tetra­fluoro­borate anion. These two anions comprise a periphery of F atoms, with equilateral triangular faces with edges of ca 2.1–2.3 Å (Allen et al., 1987[Allen, F. H., Kennard, O., Watson, D. G., Brammer, L., Orpen, A. G. & Taylor, R. (1987). J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 2, pp. S1-19.]; Atherton et al., 1996[Atherton, M. J., Fawcett, J., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., Karaçar, A., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1996). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 3215-3220.]; Fawcett et al., 1998[Fawcett, J., Friedrichs, S., Holloway, J. H., Hope, E. G., McKee, V., Nieuwenhuyzen, M., Russell, D. R. & Saunders, G. C. (1998). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 1477-1484.]). Unfortunately, crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of the non-tetra­fluoro­borate salts of [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]+ have been elusive. However, the structure of the title isoelectronic ruthenium salt, [(η5-C5Me5)Ru(NCMe){(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]PF6, (I)[link], has now been determined and is presented here.

[Scheme 1]

The structure of (I)[link] (Fig. 1[link]) reveals that the hexa­fluoro­phosphate anion does not adopt a similar position to that of the tetra­fluoro­borate anion in [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2}]BF4 and [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{(C6H3F2-2,6)2PCH2CH2P(C6H3F2-2,6)2}]BF4. The cation shows contacts to three anions which are shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii of the respective atoms. One anion position is close to the penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl ligand, such that there is one F⋯H distance shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii (F36⋯H10C = 2.626 Å). The shortest inter-ion F⋯C(C5Me5) distances are between atoms F34 and C9 [3.493 (6) Å], F36 and C10 [3.564 (7) Å], and F32 and C10 [3.597 (7) Å]. However, for this anion, the shortest inter-ion F⋯C distance of 3.028 (6) Å is between atoms F36 and C2S of the acetonitrile. The distance between atoms C3S and F36 is 3.123 (5) Å, with F36⋯H3S2 = 2.609 Å, and that between atoms C3S and F34 is 3.396 (7) Å, with F34⋯H3S2 = 2.481 Å.

Another anion position gives three short contacts with a C6F5 ring (F32⋯F26B = 2.888 (6) Å, F32⋯C26B = 2.964 (6) Å and F32⋯C25B = 3.110 (6) Å) and a contact with a CH2 H atom (F35⋯H2A2 = 2.633 Å). The third anion position gives a contact with a C6F5 ring (F31⋯C14B = 3.113 (7) Å), a CH2 H atom (F33⋯H1A1 = 2.599 Å) and an acetonitrile H atom (F35⋯H3S1 = 2.428 Å).

Experimental

The title complex was obtained from the reaction of [(η5-C5Me5)Ru(NCMe)3]PF6 with (C6F5)2PCH2CH2P(C6F5)2 in dichloro­methane (10 ml) gave a yellow–green solution from which a small number of yellow crystals of (I)[link] were obtained by cooling the reaction mixture to 273 K.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
