The disruption of furan by bis(triphenylphosphine)rhenium heptahydride: synthesis and crystal structure of the 1-oxapentadienyl complex Re(η5-C4H5O)(PPh3)2(CO)
Abstract
Reaction of furan with (Ph3P)2ReH7 and 3,3-dimethylbutene yields the 1-oxapentadienyl complex Re(η5-C4H5O)(PPh3)2(CO), the X-ray crystal structure of which has been determined.
