Reaction of MHCl(CO)(PBut2Me)2 (M=Ru and Os) with CH2N2 was studied from -78 to 25°C, revealing first the formation of MHCl(CH2)(CO)(PBut2Me)2, where the carbene ligand CH2 occupies what was the open coordination site of MHCl(CO)(PBut2Me)2, which lies trans to the hydride. This intermediate then isomerizes to M(CH3)Cl(CO)(PBut2Me)2, below 25°C for each metal. The analogous reaction of MHCl(CO)(PPri3)2 with CH2N2 does indeed give MHCl(CH2)(CO)(PPri3)2, which then ‘decomposes’ unselectively; when M=Os, C2H4 and OsHCl(CO)(PPri3)2 are among the products. This extreme phosphine dependence is attributed to the H–MCH2 to M(CH3) isomerization requiring phosphine dissociation; the smaller PPri3 fails to dissociate at a rate competitive with alternative decomposition reactions.
MHCl(CO)(PBut2Me)2(M=Ru和Os)与
CH2N2的反应在-78°C到25°C的范围内进行了研究,首先形成了
MHCl(
CH2)(CO)(PBut2Me)2,其中类卡宾
配体 占据了
MHCl(CO)(PBut2Me)2的开放配位位点,且该位点位于
氢化物的对面。该中间体随后异构化为M(
CH3)Cl(CO)(PBut2Me)2,且对于每种
金属,该异构化反应在25°C以下发生。
MHCl(CO)(PPri3)2与 的类似反应确实生成了
MHCl( )(CO)(PPri3)2,但随后会无选择性地“分解”;当M=Os时,
C2H4和OsHCl(CO)(PPri3)2是其中的一些产物。这种极端的膦依赖性被归因于H–MCH2到M( )的异构化需要膦的解离;较小的PPri3未能以与其他分解反应竞争的速度解离。
