Investigation into the reactivity of M(η5-C5R5)(CO)2(alkane) (M = Mn or Re; R = H, Me or Ph; alkane = n-heptane or cyclopentane) and Re(η5-C5H5)(CO)2(Xe) in solution at cryogenic and room temperature
Abstract
A series of M(η5-C5R5)(CO)2(C5H10) complexes (R = H, Me or Ph; M = Mn or Re) have been characterised at low (Re only) and room temperature (R = H only) using
