H. Sakaba et al., Addition of HCl to a base-stabilized hydrido(silylene)tungsten complex andreactivity of the adduct toward LiAlH4, CHEM LETT, (11), 2001, pp. 1078-1079
The reaction of cis-Cp*(CO)(2)HW=SiPh2. Py (1, Py = pyridine) with HCl gave
an adduct Cp*(CO)(2)H2WSiPh2Cl (2). Treatment of 2 with excess LiAlH4 affo
rded an anionic complex Li[cis-Cp*(CO)(2)HWSiHPh2] (4), and the same produc
t was obtained by the reaction of 1 with LiAlH4.
