Abstract

PGSE (pulsed-gradient spin echo) 1H and 19F diffusion data, D values, and 1H,19F HOESY NMR spectra for [RuCl(p-cymene)(BINAP)]X salts [X = BF4- (2a), CF3SO3- (2b), BArF- (2c), PF6- (2d), SbF6- (2e), Cl- (2f); BArF = tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate] were recorded in CD2Cl2. The solvent dependence of the D values for 2a-c in MeOH, CHCl3, CH2Cl2, and acetone and the resulting ion-pairing effects are discussed. From HOESY data, probably small anions in CHCl3 soln. approach the Ru atom from the side of the mol. remote from the chloride and slightly below the complexed arene. PGSE diffusion data for the Ru-aqua complexes [Ru(H2O)3(CO)(dppe)]X2 [X = BF4- (3a), CF3SO3- (3b), SbF6- (3c), N(O2SCF3)2- (3d)] are reported. The obsd. D values for 3a-d partially reflect H bonding from complexed H2O to the anions.
