Coupling of alkynols and a phenyl group to a novel eta5-dihydronaphthalenide ligand on a ruthenium template.
We report the highly selective assembly of unprecedented eta5-1-methylene-1,2-dihydronaphthalenide ligands from the stoichiometric coupling of a phenyl group and two equivalents of disubstituted propargylic alcohols; in this reaction, tetraphenylborate acts as a phenylating agent.
