Unexpected regioselectivity in the coupling of π-coordinated tritylallene with an amido ligand in molybdenum complex
Abstract
Coupling of π-coordinated tritylallene with an amido ligand was unexpectedly found to take place at the terminal carbon in the reaction of [Cp(CO)3Mo(η2-CH2C
CHCPh3)][BF4] 1, with three secondary amines (dimethylamine, piperidine, morpholine).
