Synthesis and electrophilic reactivity of carbonylnitrosyl(cycloheptadienyl)-manganese cations: double nucleophilic addition to cycloheptatriene
Abstract
Treatment of [(cycloheptadienyl(Mn(CO)2L](L = CO, PR3) complexes with NOPF6 generates [(cycloheptadienyl)Mn(CO)(NO)L]+ cations that are attacked by P-, N-, H-, and C-donor nucleophiles to give functionalized cycloheptadiene complexes (5).
