Summary: | Kinetic studies were performed for CO substitution reactions of CpM(CO){sub 4} (M = Nb, Ta) and for dialkylchalcogenide substitution reactions of CpM(CO){sub 3}(C{sub 4}H{sub 8}E) (M = V, E = S; M = Nb, E = O, S, Se, Te; M = Ta, E = O, S) with phosphines. The syntheses and characterization of the new compounds CpM(CO){sub 3}(C{sub 4}H{sub 8}E) (M = Nb, E = S, Se, Te; M = Ta, E = S) are reported. Both CpM(CO){sub 4} and CpM(CO){sub 3}(C{sub 4}H{sub 8}E) were found to react by the same mechanism. For M = V, a dissociative mechanism was observed, while for M = Nb, Ta both dissociative and associative mechanisms were observed. This change in mechanism is attributed to the larger size of the Nb and Ta centers. The reactivity of the compounds was found to increase in the order V > Nb > Ta. The higher reactivity of the V compounds compared to the Nb compounds is unusual when compared to other triads, where the second-row metal usually forms the most reactive compound. The reactivity of the CpM(CO){sub 3}(C{sub 4}H{sub 8}E) compounds was found to increase in the order Te < Se < S < O, indicating that the heavier chalcogenides form more stable complexes than the higher chalcogenides. |
