Abstract

Abstract : A rational approach to phosphaquinomethane metal(0) complexes, based on dearomatization of the phenylene unit in [W(CO)5 ](R)P(Cl)–C6 H5 –CPh2, is described, including theoretical studies on mechanisms and structures. Abstract : A rational approach to phosphaquinomethane metal(0) complexes, based on dearomatization of the phenylene unit in [W(CO)5 ](R)P(Cl)–C6 H5 –CPh2, is described, including theoretical studies on mechanisms and structures. Furthermore, the first phosphaquinone tungsten complex with reversible redox properties is reported thus illustrating the beneficial stabilization of ligation.
