Abstract

The cationic complex [(CpMo) 2 (S 2 CH 2 ) (μ-S) (μ-SH)] SO 3 CF 3 ) has been reacted with a series of terminal and internal olefins to foirm the cationic product in which the olefin has inserted into the S−H bond of the bridging ligand. The reaction has been found to be reversible for most olefins. The regiochemistry of the insertion reaction has been studied, and relative rates of insertion have been determined as olefin substituents were varied. For reactions involving internal olefins, the kinetic insertion products were found to rearrange to more stable products. A mechanism for the olefin insertion reaction has been proposed
