title: Synthesis of aromatic ruthenabenzothiophenes via C-H activation of thiophenes.
abstract: The first ruthenabenzothiophenes have been achieved via the C-H activation of thiophene. These species feature high thermal stability and resistance of a moderate oxidant, which constitute valuable addition to the rare metallaaromatic containing second-row transition metals.
