Abstract

Stannylcarbynes [M(≡CSnMe₃)(CO)₂(Tp*)] [M = Mo, W; Tp* = hydrotris(dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate], which are readily obtained via the successive treatment of [M(≡CBr)(CO) ₂(Tp*)] with ⁿBuLi and ClSnMe₃, serve as effective carbyne transmetalation agents for the preparation of heteronuclear molecular gold carbido complexes such as [M(≡CAuPPh₃)(CO) ₂(Tp*)] and the tetrameric golden ring complex [W(≡CAu)(CO)₂(Tp*)]₄, which are in turn able to transfer the carbido unit to palladium.
