Abstract

Abstract : The cycloaddition of metallapentalynes with nitrosoarenes produces metallapentalenoxazetes, in which two unstable frameworks are stabilized with a metal fragment. Abstract : Cycloaddition reactions of carbynes in metallacycles with π-bond substrates have been rarely reported. We report the first [2+2] cycloaddition of metallapentalynes with nitrosoarenes to obtain the first metallapentalenoxazetes, and their photophysical and electrochemical properties were studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry with the help of theoretical calculations.
