Abstract

Deprotonation of the complex [Cp2(CO)4Mo2(µ-PPhH)(µ-H)] by ButLi at –78 °C and subsequent addition of acryloyl chloride affords the metallophosphaalkene complex [Cp2(CO)4Mo2(η1-η2-PhP[double bond, length half m-dash]CHMe)] in high yield; the complex exhibits cis/trans isomerism, both isomers having been crystallographically characterised.
