Chloro-bridged bimetallic complexes (η5-C5H5)[η5-C5H4PPh2M′(CO)4]W(μ-Cl)X [X = Cl (3), × = H (4); M′ = Cr, W] were prepared by photochemical irradiation of (η5-C5H5)[η5-C5H4PPh2M′(CO)5]WClX [X = Cl (1), × = H (2); M′ = Cr, W]. The reactivity of the chloro-bridged complexes towards Lewis bases was studied; by exposure to CO or phosphanes, a facile cleavage of the chloro bridge accompanied by regio- and stereospecific coordination at M′ occurs. The X-ray structure of complex 3 (M′ = W) is reported.
