摘要:
The reaction of the Cr(II) methyl complex, CrMe[N(SiMe2CH2PPh2)(2)], with diphenyl disulfide (PhSSPh) leads to the formation of the five-coordinate, paramagnetic complex CrMe(SPh)[N(SiMe2CH2PPh2)(2)] by an overall one-electron oxidation. The complex is unusual in that the phenyl thiolate moiety is terminal and does not engage in bridging to generate a dinuclear system having octahedral Cr(III) centers. The complex was characterized both in solution and in the solid state.
