Abstract:
Variable temperature solution 13C NMR of [Mo(CO)3(diglyme)] shows that the chelating diglyme ligand is displaced by the monodentate solvents acetone, methanol and ethanol at low temperature. Free and coordinated solvent are observed at low temperature while at ambient temperature rapid exchange prevents the observation of coordinated solvent.
