    Abstract

    The palladium-mediated reaction of [W(≡CBr)(CO)2(Tp∗)] (Tp∗ = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) with primary phosphines PH2R (R = Ph, Cy) affords the secondary phosphinocarbyne complexes [W(≡CPHR)(CO)2(Tp∗)], deprotonation of which provides the anionic phosphaisonitrile complexes [W(CPR)(CO)2(Tp∗)]-, including the structurally characterized salt [W(CPPh)(CO)2(Tp∗)][K(kryptofix)].
