Both dimanganese complexes and the related anions were measured by cyclic voltammetry. The treatment of the aforementioned dimanganese complexes in thf solution with Lir' (R =Me, Ph) and subsequently with PPh₃AuCl gave at 20^°C three types of products: Mn₂(μ-PR₂(CO)₈(AuPPh₃),Mn₂(μ-PR₂)(μ-C(R′)O)(CO)₆-(AuPPh₃)₂ and Mn₂(μ-PR₂)(CO)₆(AuPPh₃)₃.

Structures of the l,3,5-Trisilacyclohexane-Iron Dicarbonyl-cyclopentadienyl Complexes and C₃H₆Si₃Cl₅Fe(CO)₂πcp and C₃H₆Si₃Cl₄(Fe(CO₂)πcp)₂ Trisilapentachlorocyclo-hexyl-dicarbonylcyclopentadienyliron C₃H₆Si₃Cl₅Fe(CO)₂πcp 1 and Trisilatetrachlorocyclohexyl-bis(dicarboncyclopentadienyliron)C₃H₆Si₃Cl₄(Fe(CO)₂πcp)₂ 2 are 1,3,5-Trisilacyclohexane complexes substituted by dicarbonylcyclopentadienyliron at one and two silicon atoms of the six-membered ring, respectively. The crystal and molecular structures were determined from single crystals ( 1 ; space group P2₁/a (No. 14); a = 1100.5 pm; b = 2033.9 pm; c = 843.3pm; β = 98.58°; Z = 4; MoKα-radiation; 3142h k l; R = 0.036. 2 ; space group P1 ; (No. 2); a = 1231.1 pm; b = 1267.3 pm; c = 1045.9 pm; α = 113.23°; β = 83.93°; γ = 115.00°; Z = 2; Mokα-radiation; 4196 h k 1; R = 0.065). In both complexes the six-membered rings of the carbosilane ligands are in skew-boat conformation. The bond lengths Fe? Si are 226.4 pm and 228.1 pm, respectively. The distances Si? C and Si? Cl are 186 pm and 206 pm in 1 and 187 pm and 209 pm in 2 . Their different lengths depend on the position in the ligand system and can be explained with the concept of bond orders.     

Reactions of Cyclohexyl Isocyanide with η5‐Substituted Cyclo‐pentadienyl MoMo Triply Bonded Complexes. Crystal Structure of [Mo(CO)2(η5‐C5H4CO2CH3)]2(μ‐η2‐CNC6H11)

Reactions of one or two equiv. of cyclohexyl isocyanide in THF at room temperature with Mo?Mo triply bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) gave the isocyanide coordinated Mo? Mo singly bonded complexes with functionally substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands, [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂(μ‐η²‐CNC₆H₁₁) ( 1a , R=COCH₃; 1b , R=CO₂CH₃) and [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)(CNC₆H₁₁)]₂ ( 2a , R=COCH₃; 2b , R=CO₂CH₃), respectively. Complexes 1a , 1b and 2a , 2b could be more conveniently prepared by thermal decarbonylation of Mo? Mo singly bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) in toluene at reflux, followed by treatment of the resulting Mo?Mo triply bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) in situ with cyclohexyl isocyanide. While 1a , 1b and 2a , 2b were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopy, 1b was further characterized by X‐ray crystallography.     

Metallkomplexe von Phenylenbistriazeniden: Synthese und Kristallstrukturen von [Cp(CO)2M]2(1,2-PhN3C6H4N3Ph) (M = Mo,W)

Metal Complexes of Phenylenebistriazenides: Synthesis and Crystal Structures of [Cp(CO)₂M]₂(1,2-PhN₃C₆H₄N₃Ph) (M = Mo, W) [Cp(CO)₂M]₂(1,2-PhN₃C₆H₄N₃Ph) [(M = Mo( 1 ), M = W( 2 )] is formed in the reaction of Cp(CO)₃MCl with PhN₃(H)C₆H₄N₃(H)Ph and C₂H₅ONa in a THF/ethanol mixture. 1 crystallizes from toluene as dark red crystals (triclinic, P1 , a = 1 499.3(9) pm, b = 1 734.0(7) pm, c = 1 852.8(8) pm, α = 66.84(3)°, β = 78.25(4)°, γ = 77.19(4)°). The unit cell contains four complexes with two independent complexes in the asymmetric unit, and eight solvent molecules. 2 crystallizes from THF as yellow crystals free from solvent molecules (triclinic, P1 , a = 979.0(5) pm, b = 1 152.8(5) pm, c = 1 475.8(5) pm, α = 98.26(4)°, β = 104.93(4)°, γ = 101.03(4)°, Z = 2). 1 and 2 are discrete molecular complexes with a 1,2-bis(phenyltriazenido)phenylligand, (PhN₃C₆H₄N₃Ph)^2?, chelating the metal atoms of two Cp(CO)₂M units with the N atoms N1 and N3 of both N₃ groups. Due to the sterical pretension of the Cp(CO)₂M units the phenylenebistriazenido ligand deviates strongly from planarity that is found in the metal complexes characterized so far.
