Abstract The reaction of pentafluorobenzyl magnesium bromide with phosphorus trichloride in a 2:1 molar ratio led to the disubstituted product, bis(pentafluorobenzyl)bromophosphine 1, which, upon reaction with lithium aluminium hydride, was converted to bis(pentafluorobenzyl) phosphine 3. The reaction of 3 with oxygen led to bis(pentafluorobenzyl)phosphine oxide 4. The reaction of 1, 3 and 4 with di-mu-chloro-bis-[(eta(6)-mesitylene)chloro-retenium(II)] 5 yielded the eta(6)-mesitylene-phosphinedichloro-ruthenium(II) complexes 6-8. Single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are described for the phosphinous acid-ruthenium(II) complex 8 and for the by-product 1,2-bis (pentafluorophenyl) ethane 2, formed during the Grignard reaction of magnesium and pentafluorobenzylbromide. In 8, the Ru-C bond lengths can be categorised as four short (219-222 pm) and two long (224-228 pm). A weak intramolecular P-OH ... Cl contact (O ... Cl, 304 pm) is observed.
