Abstract

The tris(pyrazolyl)borate oxometal complexes [MoO{HB(dmpz)3}L2] (dmpz = 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl, L2 = OCH2CH2O or S2CNMe2), [VO{HB(dmpz)3}(acac)] and [ReO{HB(pz)3}L2] [pz = pyrazolyl; L2 = (OEt)2, OCH2CH2O or C2O4] reacted with the strong Lewis acid B(C6F5)3 at their M[double bond, length half m-dash]O functionality to yield stable Lewis acid–metal complex adducts. The structures of the complexes [Mo{OB(C6F5)3}{HB(dmpz)3}(S2CNMe2)] and [Mo{OB(C6F5)3}{HB(dmpz)3}(OCH2CH2O)] have been determined by X-ray crystallography.
