27. Originally, the product of this reaction was formulated as an allenylidene species, see: K. J. Harlow, A. F. Hill, J. D. E. T. Wilton-Ely, J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. 1999, 285-291.
28. 31P NMR showed no peak for free phosphine during the transformation indicating that dissociation/association of phosphine is too fast for detection by NMR spectroscopy.
29. Formation of a black precipitate, probably containing metallic ruthenium, was observed when heating the solution for more than 2 hours.
