Abstract: | Malonate anion traps the [RP-W(CO)5] bridge of 7-phosphanorbornadiene complexes 1–3 to give functional secondary phosphine complexes [RP(H)-CH(CO2Et)2]W(CO)5 ( 7–9 ). Metalation of these complexes by NaH in THF occurs at the malonic CH group, but the alkylation of the resulting carbanions preferentially takes place at phosphorus. When R stands for β-chloroethyl, the corresponding carbanion cyclizes to give the functional phosphirane complex 11 . © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
