In the title compound, [Cr(C29H30P2)(CO)4], the Cr atom is octahedrally coordinated by four carbonyl ligands and one bidentate phosphine ligand, which is bounded as a chelate in a cis position. The average Cr—P and Cr—C bond lengths are 2.377 and 1.865 Å, respectively.
The reaction of [CpMo(CO) 3 ] 2 with dicyclopentamethylenethiuram disulfide in refluxing xylene resulted a novel mono nuclear complex, cis-[(CpMo(CO) 2 {S 2 C-N(CH 2 ) 5 }] as red crystals in moderate yield. The compound was formed by the oxidative cleavage of metal-metal bond in [CpMo(CO) 3 ] 2 together with a reductive sulfur-sulfur bond scission in the ligand.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
