	abstract = {A family of ruthenium ditertiary phosphine complexes was investigated for catalytic activity toward imine hydrogenation. The diphosphines (PP) used include chiral (chiraphos, diop, binap) and achiral (dppe, dppb) systems (chiraphos = Ph2PCH(Me)CH(Me)PPh2; diop = Ph2PCH2CHOCMe2OCHCH2PPh2; binap = 2,2{\textquoteright}-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1{\textquoteright}-binaphthyl; Ph2P(CH2)(n)PPh2 (n = 2, dppe; n = 4, dppb)). Activity was observed in MeOH at low catalyst concentrations (0.77 mM Ru), under moderate conditions (room temperature (r.t.), 1000 psi H2). The air-stable Ru2Cl5(PP)2 complexes were more active than the commonly used dimeric Ru2(II,II) systems to which they give rise in situ. Asymmetric induction in the prochiral ketimine PhCH2N = C(Me)Ph was consistent, though modest, within the diop and binap series of neutral complexes, implying a common catalytic intermediate within each series. A maximum e.e. of 27\% was found using Ru2Cl5(chiraphos)2 as catalyst; this represents a non-optimized figure for asymmetric induction, as no other prochiral ketimines were screened.},

	abstract = {{Mixed-valence complexes of the type (P-P)ClRu(mu-Cl)3RuCl(P-P), and the [RuCl(P-P)]2(mu-Cl)2 products formed by their reduction with H2, are synthesized, where P-P is a chelating ditertiary phosphine Ph2P(CH2)nPPh2 (n = 3-6) or some related chiral analogues such as diop, chiraphos, dppcp, dpcycp, bdpp, binap, phenop or norphos (diop = Ph2PCH2CHOCMe2OCHCH2PPh2; chiraphos = Ph2PCH(Me)CH(Me)PPh2; dppcp = Ph2PCH(CH2)3CHPPh2; dpcycp = (C6H11)2PCH(CH2)3CHP(C6H11)2; bdpp(skewphos) = Ph2PCH(Me)CH2CH(Me)PPh2; binap = 2,2{\textquoteright}-bis(diphenylphosphine)-1,1{\textquoteright}-binaphthyl; phenop = Ph2PN(Et)CH(CH2Ph)CH2OPPh2; norphos = Ph2PCHCHCH=CHCH(CH2)CHPPh2). The [RuCl(binap)]2(mu-Cl)2 species is also formed in solution by dissociation of PPh3 from RuCl2(binap)(PPh3) which is synthesized by phosphine exchange with RuCl2(PPh3)3. From the [RuCl(P-P)]2(mu-Cl)2 complex (P-P = Ph2P(CH2)4PPh2), a range of L(P-P)Ru(mu-Cl)3RuCl(P-P) species is readily formed, where L includes an amine, acetone, NN-dimethylacetamide, Mel, PhCN, CO, N2 or H2; the L = NEt3 adduct is made also from RUCl2(dppb)(PPh3), while the corresponding dimethyl sulfoxide adduct (L = DMSO), 17e, is synthesized directly from cis-RuCl2(DMSO)4 and the phosphine. P-31{H-1} NMR data are presented for the Ru(II) species, while characterization of 17e includes an X-ray_crystallographic analysis that confirms the trichloro-bridged formulation. Crystal data are as follows: triclinic, P1BAR},
