T. Yasue et al., Syntheses and structures of trimethylphosphine-complexed primary boryl complexes of group 8 metals, Cp*M(CO)(2)(BH2 center dot PMe3) (M = Fe, Ru), CHEM LETT, (1), 2000, pp. 58-59
Photolysis of Cp*Fe(CO)(2)Me in the presence of BH3. PMe3 (1) produced a bo
ryliron complex Cp*Fe(CO)(2)(BH2. PMe3) (2a). Complex 2a and the ruthenium
analogue Cp*Ru(CO)(2)(BH2. PMe3) (3) were accessible by the salt-eliminatio
n reaction between K[Cp*M(CO)(2)] (M = Fe, Ru) and BH2Cl . PMe3.
