[(eta(6)-Polyarene)Mn(CO)(3)](+) complexes containing naphthalene type
ligands undergo regioselective nucleophilic addition reactions with H
- and C-donors to give moderate to good yields of eta(5)-cyclohexadien
yl complexes. Products derived from hydride addition to naphthalene, p
henanthrene and acenaphthene complexes have been characterized by X-ra
y diffraction.
