## Catalytic activity of [ ( $-C5Hs) (PPh,),RuX] (X = Cl ( 1), SnF, (2) ) was investigated for the highly selective formation of methyl acetate with methanol used as the sole source. Complex 2 was found to be more catalytically active than the singlemetallic complex 1. For both complexes, the init
In presence of the homogenous Rh/Cr/I catalyst system methyl formate can be isomerized to acetic acid under CO-pressure with high conversion rates and excellent selectivity. This catalyst system has never been applied before for this reaction.
Consecutive addition of one-equivalent portions of glycine ethyl ester to [(p-cymene)Ru(GGGOMeΟͺH + )Cl] leads to considerable amounts of (tetra-to nonapeptide)ruthenium complexes in a one-pot reaction, in which the (p-cymene)RuCl fragment acts as a catalyst. The analogous reaction with ala-
