The preparation of new tricarbonyl(cyclopentadienyl)rhenium and tricarbonyl(cyclopentadienyl)technetium derivatives is described. The approach used was applied to a cold target model, 17α-ethynylestradiol substituted at the 17α position by a ketotricarbonyl(cyclopentadienyl)rhenium group. The novel organometallic reaction applied here, when extended to potential radiopharmaceuticals, consists of a cyclopentadienyl-ligand transfer between ketoferrocenes and fac-

New P-N ligands featuring a phosphino group and an iminophosphorane moiety were successfully employed in the nickel-catalysed dimerisation of ethylene.
