✦ Synopsis
elimination rather than to a lower reactivity of [Ru] towards an sp3-C-H bond. 5d-Metals (such as, e.g.. iridium) form more stable M-H and M-C bonds than 4d-metals (such as, e. g., ruthenium), another finding consistent with the results published recently by Jones and FehedSb1. We assume that a higher charge density at the central atom caused by the ligand in addition to the greater number of electrons of the metal effects stabilization of the M-H and M-C bonds. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that the complex 7 (with the better donor C6Me6 compared to C&), unlike 3, does not react with C6D6 to give (C6Me6)RuD(C6D,)(PMe3) even on prolonged heating at 50°C.
