The reaction of [Ru3(CO)12] with malonic acid or oxalic acid, followed by the addition of PMe3, yielded {[Ru2(CO)4(PMe3)2](μ-O2CCH2CO2)}2 (1) and {[Ru2(CO)4(PMe3)2](μ-O2CCO2)}4 (2), respectively. The molecular structures of both 1 and 2 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction to reveal t...

Description
Summary:The reaction of [Ru3(CO)12] with malonic acid or oxalic acid, followed by the addition of PMe3, yielded {[Ru2(CO)4(PMe3)2](μ-O2CCH2CO2)}2 (1) and {[Ru2(CO)4(PMe3)2](μ-O2CCO2)}4 (2), respectively. The molecular structures of both 1 and 2 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction to reveal that 1 is a molecular loop, while 2 is the first example of molecular squares containing {Ru2(CO)4(PR3)2} building blocks.
