Abstract: | The reaction of ReBr(CO)5] with phosphite and phosphonite ligands in toluene yielded cis, mer‐ReBr(CO)2L3] ( 2 : L = P(OMe)3 2a : P(OEt)3 2b : PPh(OMe)2 2c : PPh(OEt)2 2d ). Compounds 2c and 2d were also obtained, as were the phosphinite complexes 2e L = PPh2(OMe)] and 2f L = PPh2(OEt)], by reaction of the corresponding phosphorus ligand with trans, mer‐ReBr(CO)3L2]. Compounds 2 were all characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, and the structures of 2b , 2c and 2d were determined by X‐ray diffractometry. Compounds 2a‐d are stable in chloroform and dichloromethane, but 2e and 2f are transformed into the corresponding trans, mer‐ReBr(CO)3L2] complexes by a reaction for which a partial mechanism is put forward. |
