Abstract

Reaction of (N3N)ZrPHPh (1, N3N = N(CH2CH2NSiMe3)33−) with PhCH2N[triple bond, length as m-dash]C affords the 1,1-insertion product (N3N)Zr[C(PHPh)[double bond, length as m-dash]NCH2Ph] (2), which thermally rearranges to the phosphaalkene-containing complex, (N3N)Zr[N(CH2Ph)C(H)[double bond, length as m-dash]PPh] (3).
