Synthesis of bis(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)rhenium hydride and its photochemical conversion into decamethylrhenocene

Abstract

Cocondensation of rhenium vapour with 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadiene gives bis(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)rhenium hydride; photolysis of the hydride yields monomeric bis(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)rhenium, and reduction of the latter gives a stable anion which may be readily converted into bis(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)methylrhenium.
