Abstract: | The anion of Li(THF)4]Re2(CO)8(Ph2PCHPPh2)] (1) is formed cleanly by treatment of Re2(CO)8(Ph2PCH2PPh2) with LiAlH4 in tetrahydrofuran (54% yield). Anion 1 is remarkably stable toward all organic electrophiles examined. Whereas protons are added and removed reversibly, 1 is stable to treatment with MeI, Me3SiCl, Me3SiCH2Cl or Ph2PCl, even under forcing conditions. This behavior sharply contrasts the high reactivity of other mononuclear (Ph2PCHPPh2)MLx complexes. |
