28. 2 splitting over the methylacridinium salt was reported in modeling studies of hydrogenase enzyme activity using Cp*(dppm)RuH. Tetramethylpiperidine was employed as the hydride acceptor. See: Hembre, R. T.; McQueen, S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1994, 116, 2141.
29. H/D exchange into the alkylphosphine groups was also observed. See the Supporting Information.

32. All of the calculations were carried out using DFT at the PCM(toluene)M06+d/SDB-cc-pVDZ//M06/SDD(d) level (see the Supporting Information for details and references). All energies are reported in kcal/mol and, unless stated otherwise, they are relative to A. A (') is used to denote model complexes having Me-P in lieu of i-Pr-P.
33. 2 resulted in mixtures. Treatment of the related phosphinite pincer complex (PNP)Ru(H)(Cl)(CO) with a base was reported to result in the Ru(O) complex (PNP)Ru(CO). See: Salem, H.; Shimon, L. J. W.; Diskin-Posner, Y.; Leitus, G.; Ben-David, Y.; Milstein, D. Organometallics 2009, 28, 4791.
