A new anionic dinuclear ruthenium complex bearing 1, 2-his(diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzene (BDPX) [NH2Et2][{RuCl (BDPX)}2(μ-Cl)3] (1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by an X-ray crystallo-graphic ana...A new anionic dinuclear ruthenium complex bearing 1, 2-his(diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzene (BDPX) [NH2Et2][{RuCl (BDPX)}2(μ-Cl)3] (1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by an X-ray crystallo-graphic analysis. This result indicated that complex 1 consisted of an anion dinuclear BDPX-Ru and a cationic di-ethylammonium. The crystal belonged to monoclinic system, C2/c space group with a=3.3552(7) nm, b= 1.8448(4) nm, c=2.4265(5) nm, β= 101.89(3)° and Z=8. The catalytic hydrogenation activities and selectivities of complex 1 for cinnamaldehyde were investigated.展开更多
