Notes:
Sequential reaction of the dimethylamino(ethynyl)carbene complex [(CO)5 W=C(NMe2)C≡CH] (1) with nBuLi, CuI and BrC≡CSiMe3 affords the dimethylamino(trimethylsilylbutadiynyl)carbene [(CO)5W=C(NMe2)C≡C—C≡C—SiMe3] (2). Desilylation of 2 with KF/THF/MeOH gives [(CO)5W=C(NMe2)C≡C—C≡CH] (3). The C-stannylated carbene complex [(CO)5W=C(NMe2)C≡C—C≡CSnBu3] (4) is obtained by deprotonation of 3 with nBuLi and subsequent reaction with Bu3SnCl. Pd-catalyzed coupling of complex 4 with [ClRu(CO),Cp] affords the heterobimetallic pentadiynylidene complex [(CO)5W=C(NMe,)C≡C—C≡CRu-(CO)2Cp] (5) The analogous Fe derivative [(CO),W=C(NMe,)C≡C—C≡CFe(CO)2Cp] (6) is obtained by sequential reaction of 3 with nBuLi and [IFe(CO)2Cp] Similarly, treatment of 3 first with nBuLi and then with half an equivalent of HgCl2 affords the novel C4HgC4-bridged biscarbene complex [(CO)3W=C(NMe2)C≡C—C≡CHgC≡C—C≡CC(NMe2)=W(CO)5]( 7 ) All new compounds are stable at room temperature. Spectroscopic data suggest weak interaction of the metal centers in 5 - 7.
