Novel Synthetic Routes to the Anionic Alkylidene Complex [CpMo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)(CHSiMe3)]- from Its Neutral Dialkyl Precursor

Conversion of the dialkyl nitrosyl complex Cp*Mo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)2 (1) to the lithium salt of the anionic alkylidene complex [Cp*Mo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)(CHSiMe3)]2[Li2(THF)3] (2) may be effected with each of the lithium reagents LiN(SiMe3)2, LDA, or LiPPh2. Interestingly, each transformation follows a differ...

Description
Summary:Conversion of the dialkyl nitrosyl complex Cp*Mo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)2 (1) to the lithium salt of the anionic alkylidene complex [Cp*Mo(NO)(CH2SiMe3)(CHSiMe3)]2[Li2(THF)3] (2) may be effected with each of the lithium reagents LiN(SiMe3)2, LDA, or LiPPh2. Interestingly, each transformation follows a different mechanistic pathway.
