Abstract
Treatment of (η5-pentadienyl)Re(CO)3with 1 equiv of Et2PCH2CH2PEt2 (depe) produces (cis-η1-pentadienyl)Re(CO)3(depe) (1). Upon irradiation at 0 °C, 1 is converted to (3-η1-pentadienyl)Re(CO)3(depe) (2). This species rearranges thermally via a phosphine dissociation/association process to (trans-η1-pentadienyl)Re-(CO)3(depe) (3). Compounds 1 and 2 have been structurally characterized.
