Preferred Abstract (Original): 
Reaction of the ruthenium phosphine complex [RuCl2(PPh3)3] 1 with an unsaturated functionalized diphosphine ligand, namely 1,1-bis(diphenyl-phosphinomethyl)ethene, H2C=C(CH2PPh2)2, (dppme) gave trans-Cl2Ru(dppme)2 2. Complex 2 served as a precursor for the synthesis of trans-Cl2Ru(dppme)(alkylamine)2 complexes 3–5 by reaction with RNH2. All these complexes were characterized by spectroscopic techniques and by elemental analysis. The solid-state structure of complex 2 was determined by X-ray crystallography.
