“…Previously, we have presented the results of ligand exchange of the trianion of (Et 4 N) 3 [W 2 (OMe) 3 (CO) 6 ], (II), with aryl alcohols (Klausmeyer et al, 2003). Subsequently, we reported the complete exchange reaction with an alcohol containing an sp 3 carbon (Klausmeyer & Adrian, 2004). In each of the previous examples, there was always complete exchange of all of the methoxy groups, regardless of how much of the new alcohol was added.…”
