Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes of the type [Ru(PPh3)(η 5-C5Me5)L] have been synthesized by the reactions of [RuCl(PPh3)2(η 5-C5Me5)] with Schiff bases having the (N, O) donor atoms. The Schiff bases used in this study were prepared by condensing the appropriate aniline with salicylaldehyde or 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde in a 1:2 molar ratio respectively. The complexes were characterized by analytical, spectral (i.r., electronic and 1H-n.m.r.) data. The new complexes have been used as catalysts in aryl–aryl coupling reactions.
