The chemical reactivity of this complex against water, acid medium, O 2 , CO, isopropylamine, cyclohexylamine, 2-aminopyridine, ethanethiol and ethanol was studied. As a result, new amino and thio-carbenes were obtained and characterized. Additionally, complex 2 was evaluated as catalyst for the isomerisation of linear allylic alcohols with different tail lengths. %K Ruthenium %K Methyl-PTA %K Metal vinylidene %K Allylic alcohols %K Redox isomerization %K Water %~ Universidad de Cádiz
