Abstract
In complexes of the type Ru(arene)(cot) (cot = cyclooctatetraene) the cyclooctatetraene ring is 1-4-η-bonded as shown by X-ray diffraction study of the hexamethylbenzene derivative, and the barrier to intramolecular exchange of the bound and unbound halves of the eight-membered ring is unusually low (< 6 kcal/mol).
