Abstract

The oxidation of the complexes W(CHPh)(X)(BHPz3)(Br) (X = NCMe3, N-1-adamantyl, NC6H2-2,4,6-(CH3)3, O) with Br2 was investigated. The net outcome of the reactions is insertion of the benzylidyne unit into one of the W-N bonds of the tungsten tris(pyrazolyl)borate cage to afford the complexes W{[C(Ph)-C3H3N2-BHPz2)](X)(Br2). The crystal structures of two compounds of this type of complex with X = N-1-adamantyl and X = O have been determined by X-ray crystallography. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.
