Complexes containing two metals of disparate electronic properties often exhibit unusual structural and reactivity features. Examples of such compounds include those in which early and late transition metals are joined by a direct metal-metal bond, a bridging CH{sub 2} ligand, or a single carbon atom ({mu}{sub 2}-carbide). The authors report here the preparation of compounds which contain CH{double bond}CH and CH{sub 2}CH{sub 2} bridges between an electron-rich (C{sub 5}H{sub 5})(PMe{sub 3}){sub 2}Ru fragment and an electron-deficient (C{sub 5}H{sub 5}){sub 2}ZrCl moiety.
