A novel route to butatrienylidene complexes : stabilisation of :c=c=c=ch2 on ru5 clusters

TL;DR: In this paper, the X-ray structures of 3 and 4 were reported, and the first stable butatrienylidene complex was reported. But atrienyidene is an isomeric mixture of [Ru5{µ4-CCCCH(SiMe3)}(µ-PPh2)2,SMe)(µ3-SMe)2(CO)11]
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal and Molecular Structures of Some Alkynyl–Group 9/Group 11 Complexes [M2m4(C2R)8(PPh3)2] (M = Rh, Ir; m = Cu, Ag; R = Ph, Fc (Ir/Cu only))

TL;DR: The crystal and molecular structures of five complexes [M2m4(C≡ CR)8(PPh3)2] (M = Rh, Ir; m = Cu, Ag; R = Ph, Fc (Ir/Cu only)) are described in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pentakis(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentadiene chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, the reaction between Tl[C5(CO2Me)5] and {RhCl(CO)2}2 afford Rh{η4-C5H3 (CO 2Me)3-1,4,5}{η5-C-5H2(CO 2ME)3}, fully characterised by an X-ray crystal structure determination, which is related to the previously described rhodicinium cation [Rh{∆5]-]- by formal addition of hydride to one of the C
Journal ArticleDOI

The Stereoisomers of 5-Bromo-6,8-dimethoxy-1,2,3-trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline. X-Ray Crystal-Structure of the trans Isomer

TL;DR: In this article, the Henry reaction between 3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (2) and nitroethane gave (E)-2-(3,5dimethoxyphenyl)-1-methyl-1-nitroethene (3), under mild conditions the erythro and threo nitro aldols intermediate in this reaction could be isolated as their acetates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cationic η5-cyclopentadienylpalladium(II) complexes. Compounds of type [Pd(η5-C5H5)L2]PF6 containing tertiary phosphines, arsines, and stibines. Crystal and molecular structure of [Pd(η5-C5H5)(SbPh3)2]PF6·CH2Cl2

TL;DR: In this article, the molecular structure of PF6·CH2Cl2 has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis and the structure was solved by heavy-atom methods at 295(1) K and refined by least-squares methods to R= 0.051 for 4 384 observed reflections.
