Abstract: | Phosphonium adduct formation via attack of tri-n-butylphosphine on the cations (C7H7)M(CO)3]+ (M = Cr, Mo, W) obeys the rate law, Rate = k complex] PBu3]. The very similar rate constants for the Cr, Mo and W complexes confirm the similar electrophilicities of the tropylium rings in these cations, and also support the view that there is direct addition to the rings. The related complexes (C6H7)Fe(CO)3]BF4 and (C6H6)Mn(CO)3]BF4 also form adducts with PBu3, and the quantitative reactivity order (C6H7)Fe(CO)3]+ > (C7H7)Cr(CO)3]+ » (C6H6)Mn(CO)3]+ (160:60:1) has been established. |
