Abstract

Complex [Mo₂(H)₂{μ-HC(NDipp)₂}₂(THF)₂], (1·THF), reacts with C₂H₄ and PhCH [double bond, length as m-dash] CH₂ to afford hydrido-hydrocarbyl and bis(hydrocarbyl) derivatives of the Mo [quadruple bond, length as m-dash] Mo bond. Reversible migratory insertion and β-hydrogen elimination, as well as reductive elimination and other reactions, have been uncovered. PhC [triple bond, length as m-dash] CH behaves instead as a Brönsted–Lowry acid towards the strongly basic Mo–H bonds of 1·THF.
