Formation of tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)cyclobutadiene complexes of molybdenum and the existence of high barriers to rotation of the cyclobutadiene ring

Abstract

The syntheses of complexes [Mo(η5-C5H5){η4-C4(CF3)4}(CO)I] and [Mo(η5-C5H5){η4-C4(CF3)4}S2CNMe2] containing a tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)cyclobutadiene ring are described; variable temperature 19F n.m.r. studies reveal the existence of high barriers to rotation of the C4 ring about the metal–ligand axis in both complexes.
