Abstract: | Contributions to the Chemistry of Transition Metal Alkyl Compounds. XL. About Lithium Alkenylmanganates(II) MnCl2 reacts with vinyl, 2,2-dimethylvinyl, allyl, and methallyl lithium giving rise to alkenyl manganates(II). In a pure state the compounds Li2Mn(CH?CH2)4] · 1.5 diox, Li2Mn(CH?C(CH3)2)4] · 1.5 diox, Li2Mn(CH2? CH?CH2)4] · 2.5 diox and Li3Mn(CH2? C(CH3)?CH2)5] · 2 diox were isolated. The compounds were characterized by elementary analysis, EPR and IR spectra, magnetic moments, and reactions with iodine. |
