Abstract: | Variable temperature 1H NMR spectroscopy has been used in the study of 1,3-intramolecular shifts of the M(CO)5 moiety in complexes of the general formula M(CO)5L], (M = Cr or w), L = H2, H2 and H2. For the 1,3,5-trithian complexes precise energy barriers for the process have been obtained by detailed computer simulation of the static and dynamic spectra. Our results suggest that the magnitude of ΔG≠ (298.15 K) for the 1,3-shift is largely dependent upon the skeletal flexibility of the ligand system. In this context we have investigated the X-ray crystal structure of the highly substituted trithian complex W(CO)5{β-H(Me)}]. |
