Two forms of the cation bis(tris(2-pyridyl)methanol)ruthenium(II) have been isolated--a yellow species, (Ru((py)/sub 3/COH)/sub 2/)/sup 2 +/ (2), and an orange form in which one ligand is deprotonated, (Ru((py)/sub 3/COH)((py)/sub 3/CO/sup -/))/sup +/ (1). The pK/sub a/ for the ligand deprotonation is 3.78 (+/-0.02) in aqueous 0.1 M KNO/sub 3/ at 25.0/sup 0/C. X-ray structural determinations show coordination occurs in an (N,N',-N'')(N,N',O) mode for both complexes, with the coordinated oxygen atom being the site of the acid/base reactivity. The deprotonated species (1) has a plane of symmetry with Ru-N bond lengths in the range 2.040-2.063 A. The nondeprotonated form (2) has Ru-N bond lengths in the range of 2.046-2.058 A, except for an abnormally short Ru-N bond (2.023 (2) A) trans to the coordinated Ru-OH. Additionally, in 2 the plane of symmetry is lost. In aqueous solution the redox for the Ru(III)/Ru(II) couples are 0.40 (2) and 0.25 V (1) vs. SSCE. The electronic and /sup 13/C NMR spectra are also reported. Crystal parameters for both the protonated and deprotonated form of the named complex are reported. 39 references, 3 figures, 4 tables.
