Abstract
The relative trans influences of Cl and Me in the complexes (1-Me-inde nyl)Ni(PPh3)Cl and (1-Me-indenyl)Ni(PPh3)Me lead to different solid st ate hapticities for the 1-Me-indenyl ligands. Comparing the solution N MR data for these complexes and the energy barriers to the rotation of the indenyl ligands in their unsubstituted analogues demonstrates tha t solid state hapticities are preserved in solution.
