M. Minoura et al., WEAK COORDINATION OF A TELLUROKETONE IN AN ETA(1)-MODE COMPLEX - SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF ACARBONYL(1,1,3,3-TETRAMETHYLINDANTELLONE)TUNGSTEN, Chemical communications, (2), 1996, pp. 123-124
Treatment of a stable telluroketone with W(CO)(5)-thf affords the titl
e compound, the X-ray crystal structure of which shows eta(1),sigma-co
mplexation and the trans influence of the weakly coordinated telluroke
tone; the regeneration of a 'free' telluroketone by ligand exchange of
the complex under mild conditions is also reported.
