Iminoacylberyllium compounds derived from octamethyl- and decamethylberyllocene and 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide. Evidence for the existence of eta(5)/eta(1) isomers of beryllocenes

The existence in solution of eta (5)/eta (1) isomers of the beryllocenes Be
(C5Me5)(2) and Be(C5Me4H)(2) is inferred from the results of their reaction
with CNXyl to give iminoacyl products. The process is reversible and invol
ves coupling of a Be-eta (1)-Cp ' group with the isocyanide.
