Comparative chemistry of 18-electron Mo(II) and 17-electron Mo(III) compounds containing only carbon-based ligands
1998
International audience; The chemical reactivity of various kinetically stable isomers of compound CpMo(η3-C3H5)(η4-C4H6), 1, and its oxidation product [1]+, as well as the bis-allyl Mo(III) complex CpMo(η3-C3H5)2, 2, and the bis-diene Mo(II) complex [CpMo(η4-C4H6)2]+, 3, is reviewed. The inertness toward isomerization processes of the allyl and butadiene ligands in the Mo(II) complexes has allowed a study of the relative reactivity toward both electrophilic and nucleophilic addition processes as a function of coordination mode. The dependence of various reaction pathways on the metal oxidation state has also been investigated. Of particular interest is the discovery that the electronically …
Cyclopentadienylmolybdenum(II) and -(III) complexes containing diene and allyl ligands. Part 4. Reactivity studies of the bisallyl complex CpMo(supin…

Abstract Compound CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 ) 2 , 3, has been synthesized from CpMoCl 4 and four equivalents of allylmagnesium bromide. While the compound is stable in donor solvents at room temperature, warming in refluxing MeCN induces the formation of 1,5-hexadiene by a metal-mediated allyl-allyl coupling process. Treatment of 3 with Bu t NC at room temperature affords CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 )(Bu t NC) 2 , 4. A similar reduction with presumed allyl radical loss occurs for [CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 )( η 4 -C 4 H 6 )] + , [1c] + , to afford [CpMo( η 4 -C 4 H 6 )(Bu t NC) 2 ] + , 5. Treatment of [1c] + with methyllithium affords two products, the major one (1c) corresponding to the one-electron reduction pa…
Stable 17-electron Mo(III) complexes containing alkyl ligands
1999
Abstract The alkylation of the half-sandwich complex CpMoCl 2 ( η 4 -diene) (diene=C 4 H 6 , 2,3-Me 2 C 4 H 4 ) affords the first thermally stable 17-electron compounds containing Mo(III)–alkyl bonds.
