Abstract Cationic allyldicarbonyl derivatives of molybdenum and tungsten of the types [M(CO) 2 (η 3 -allyl)(L 3 )PF 6 (M = W, allyl = C 3 H 5 or 2-MeC 3 H 4 , L 3 =bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine, bpma) and [M(CO) 2 (η 3 -allyl)(L 4 )]PF 6 (M = Mo or W, allyl = C 3 H 5 or 2-MeC 3 H 4 , L4 = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine, tpma) have been prepared, and their isomerism and dynamic behaviour in solution examined. In the solid state, [W(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 5 )(bpma)]PF 6 ( 1a ) exhibits an unsymmetric, and [Mo(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 5 )(tpma)]PF 6 ( 3 ) a symmetric, orientation of the N-donor set, which comprises two pyridyl rings and the central, exocyclic N of each ligand, with respect to the π-allyl group. The third bipyridyl ring of tpma in the latter complex is orientated away from the metal centre in the solid, but undergoes rapid exchange with N-donors within the coordination sphere at elevated temperatures in solution. Neither of the 2-MeC 3 H 4 analogues of 3 are dynamic under similar conditions, whereas the 2-MeC 3 H 4 analogue of 1 undergoes a facile trigonal twist rearrangement.

Abstract Dissolution of [MoCl(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(NCMe) 2 ] (R = H or Me) in methanol yields yellow conducting solutions containing the [Mo(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(HOMe) 3 ] + cations. The same species are formed on dissolution of [Mo(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(NCMe) 3 ]BF 4 in methanol, and one of the cations (R = Me) has been isolated as its tetrafluoroborate salt. There is strong spectroscopic evidence that hydrated allyldicarbonylmolybdenum(II) cations [Mo(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(H 2 O) x ] + are present on dissolution of [MoCl(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(NCMe) 2 ] in deoxygenated water, and treatment of these solutions with bi- and tridentate ligands yields neutral complexes [MoCl(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)L 2 ] (R = H or Me; L 2 = 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) or 2,2′-bipyridylamine (bpa)), and cationic species [Mo(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)L 3 ] + (R = H or Me; L 3 = diethylenetriamine (dien) or bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (bpma)) respectively. The latter were isolated as their hexafluorophosphate salts. Addition of Ph 4 AsCl to basic methanolic solutions of [MoCl(CO) 2 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R)(NCMe) 2 ] causes the precipitation of the anionic molybdenum derivatives Ph 4 As[Mo 2 (CO) 4 (η 3 -C 3 H 4 R) 2 (μ-OMe) 3 ] (R = H or Me).

Abstract On passing a stream of dry N 2 gas through a solution of Mo(CO) 3 (PR 3 ) 2 X 2 (PR 3 = PEtPh 2 , PMe 2 Ph or PEt 2 Ph, X = Br; PR 3 = PMePh 2 , X = Cl, Br or I) in acetonitrile at room temperature, or W(CO) 3 - (PR 3 ) 2 X 2 (PR 3 = PMePh 2 or PMe 2 Ph, X = Br) in boiling acetonitrile, the yellow, monomeric 7- coordinate dicarbonyls M(CO) 2 (NCMe)(PR 3 ) 2 X 2 are formed in high yields. The nitrile ligand is readily displaced from M(CO) 2 (NCMe)(PR 3 ) 2 X 2 (M = Mo, PR 3 = PEtPh 2 or PEt 2 Ph, X = Br; PR 3 = PMePh 2 , X = I; M = W, PR 3 = PMePh 2 , X = Br) by passing a vigorous stream of N 2 gas through a solution of these complexes dissolved in chlorinated or ketonic solvents yielding new, highly coloured 6-coordinate d 4 M(CO) 2 (PR 3 ) 2 X 2 derivatives.

Nucleation of calcite from supersaturated calcium hydrogancarbonate solution has been achieved on the surfaces of poly(dimethylsiloxane) films formed by cross-linking in the presence of catalytic quantities of dibutyltindilaurate or zinc octanoate. Films containing high concentrations of the diorganotin catalyst produced, in addition to calcite, amorphous calcium silicate and calcium silanolate under similar conditions. Polar functional groups incorporated into the polysiloxane network served to promote calcite growth, but prolonged heating of all films at 90 °C rendered them inactive.

Abstract Reaction of Ph 4 P[Mo(2,2′-bipyridine)Cl(CO 3 ] with 1,4-dichlorobut-2-yne in the presence of primary or secondary aliphatic amines gives high yields of neutral molybdenum complexes containing 2-substituted η 3 -bonded trans -butadienyl ligands. The crystal structure of the perfluorocarboxylate derivative [Mo(2,2′-bipyridine)(CO) 2 (η 3 -CH 2 C(CONHMe)CCH 2 ) (O 2 CC 3 F 7 ] has been determined.

The 1 : 1 reaction of sodium trifluoroacetate with either [MBr2(NCMe)(CO)2(PR3)2](M = Mo or W, PR3= PMe2Ph or PMePh2) or [MBr2(CO)2(PPh3)2](M = Mo or W) formed the mononuclear complexes [MBr(O2CCF3)(CO)2(PR3)2] containing a bidentate carboxylate ligand. Addition of a second equivalent of the carboxylate salt generated [M(O2CCF3)2(CO)2(PR3)2] in which the oxygen-donor ligands adopt one bidentate and one monodentate bonding mode. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of [MoBr(O2CCF3)(CO)2(PPh3)2] confirm a 4 : 3 polytopal form. The treatment of [MBr2(NCMe)(CO)2(PR3)2](M = Mo, PR3= PMePh2; M = W, PR3= PMe2Ph or PMePh2) or [MBr2(CO)2(PPh3)2](M = Mo or W) with a suspension of sodium oxalate in acetone yielded the complexes [{MBr(CO)2(PR3)2}2(µ-C2O4)]. The tungsten species [{WBr(CO)2(PMe2Ph)2}2(µ-C2O4)] crystallises in two forms both of which contain a planar oxalate bridge linking two seven-co-ordinate metal centres, but have different 4 : 3 geometries. The triangular face of the polygon in each of the three structures is occupied by a bromine atom and two oxygens of a carboxylate group, and the quadrilateral face by pairs of carbonyl and phosphine ligands.
