Abstract
The synthesis of the intramolecularly coordinated heteroleptic organostannylene tungsten pentacarbonyl complexes 4-tBu-2,6-[P(O)(OiPr)(2)](2)C(6)H(2)Sn(X)W(CO)(5) (1, X = Cl; 2, X = F; 3, X = PPh(2)) and of 4-tBu-2,6-[P(O)(OiPr)(2)](2)C(6)H(2)Sn[W(CO)(5)]PPh(2)[W(CO)(5)], 4, are reported. UV-irradiation of compound 4 in tetrahydrofurane serendipitously gave the bis(organostannylene) tungsten tetracarbonyl complex cyclo-O(2)W[OSn(R)](2)W(CO)(4) (R = 4-tBu-2,6-[P(O)(OiPr)(2)](2)C(6)H(2)), 5, that contains an unprecedented W(0)-Sn-O-W(vi) bond sequence. The compounds 1-5 were characterized by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, (1)H, (13)C, (19)F, (31)P, (119)Sn NMR, and IR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and elemental analysis. Compound 4 features a hindered rotation about the Sn-P bond.
