Abstract: | The reaction of phenalene with Cr(CO)3Py3/BF3·OEt2 afforded a mixture of two isomeric complexes, tricarbonyl(6a,7-9,9a,9b-·6-phenalene)chromium (1) and tricarbonyl(3a,6a,9b,4-6-·6-phenalene)chromium (2). Deprotonation of the mixture of compounds1 and2 followed by treatment with MeI, BunI, or D2O gave complexesexo-1-R-1 (3–5: R=Me (3), Bun (4), or D (5)). The molecular geometry of complex3 was established by X-ray structural analysis. Heating of complex5 in toluene or C6F6 at 90–110 °C resulted in redistribution of deuterium among positionsexo-1,endo-1, and 3 in the resulting complexes of types1 and2
via sigmatropic shifts of the H
exo
and H
endo
atoms in the nonaromatic ring as well asvia inter-ring migrations of the tricarbonylchromium group. In the case of3, the methyl label is distributed among positionsexo-1 and3 to form isomeric complexes with similar structures (exo-1-Me-2 (6), 3-Me-2 (7), and 3-Me-1 (8), respectively)via processes analogous to those observed in the case of isomerization of compound5 (except for migration of the H
exo
atom). The mechanisms of these rearrangements are discussed.
