N. Kaneta et al., ELECTRONIC INTERACTION OF TRICARBONYLCHROMIUM-COMPLEXED BENZENE WITH A FACING ARYL RING IN THE 1,8-DIARYLNAPHTHALENE SYSTEM, Tetrahedron letters, 37(30), 1996, pp. 5385-5388
A series of 1,8-diarylnaphthalenes with the face-to-face aryl group(s)
coordinated to tricarbonylchromium have been synthesized. Examination
of X-ray crystal structures, charge-transfer absorption bands, and CO
stretching vibrations has indicated marked x-donor ability for the tr
icarbonyl(arene)chromium moiety. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science L
