Abstract
A bisimidazole-phosphine ligand, PhP[(CH2)2ImArMe2]2, has been prepared and has been metalated using [Cp*Ru(μ3-Cl)]4, generating a bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)-phosphine Ru(II) species through ligand coordination followed by tautomerization. This is the first example of an NHC–donor–NHC complex with two unsubstituted N–H wingtips. Furthermore, a second metal center was installed by deprotonation of both N–H wingtips and subsequent salt metathesis to generate Ru(II)–Fe(II) and Ru(II)–Co(II) bimetallic complexes.
