Abstract
Treating the complexes [Hg{C≡CC≡W-(CO)2L} 2] (L = HB(pz)3 (1a), HB(pz′)3 (1b);pz = pyrazol-1-yl; pz′ = 3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl) with 1 equiv of cis-[PtCl2(PPh3)2] or a catalytic amount of trans-[RhCl(CO)-(PPh3)2] provides the bimetallic complexes [L(CO)2-W≡CC≡CC≡CC≡W(CO) 2L] (L = HB(pz)3 (2a), HB(pz′)3 (2b)), the first examples of dimetallaoctatetra-1,3,5,7-ynes. Catalytic amounts of [RhCl(CO)(PPh3)2] also provide 2a and 2b in good yields.
