Abstract
Recent applications of tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) in organometallic chemistry are reviewed; this survey is mainly concerned with selected reactions of tetracyanoethylene which have use or potential use in organometallic synthesis. Among other topics, it includes discussion on structure and bonding of metal-tetracyanoethylene complexes, reactions of main-group organometallics with TCNE, reactions of metallocenes with TCNE, and reactions of transition-metal complexes with TCNE; also reactions of metal-coordinated alkenes and alkynes with TCNE; and reactions of platinum-family complexes with TCNE. 1 Introduction 2. Scope of Review 3. Physical Properties, Spectral Properties, and Crystallographic Data for TCNE 4. Structure and Bonding of Metal-TCNE Complexes 5. Reactions of the Main-Group Organometallic Compounds with TCNE 6. Reactions of Metallocenes with TCNE 7. Reactions of Tricarbonyliron Complexes with TCNE 8. Reactions of Metal Coordinated Alkenes and Alkynes with TCNE 9. Diverse Behavior of TCNE Towards Transition Metal-Carbon σ-Bonded Complexes 10 Reactions of Platinum-family Complexes with TCNE
