Dalton communications. A new route to organometallic selenolate complexes of tungsten(II) and molybdenum(II). Crystal structure of [W(η5-C5H5)(CO)3(SeCH2Ph)]
Abstract
Molybdenum(II) and tungsten(II) organoselenolate complexes were synthesised via selenium insertion into the corresponding metal–lithium bonds and subsequent reactions with organohalides.
