Abstract
Cyclopentadienyl- and methylcyclopentadienyltetrahydrofuranedicarbonylmanganese behave with respect to diazomethane as carbene trapping reagents. The reactions carried out at low temperatures yield diamagnetic dimeric complexes of the type [RC5H4Mn(CO)2]2CH2 (R = H and CH3, respectively), which contain, as shown by their spectroscopic data, a CH2-bridging ligand as characteristic structural element. In addition to the μ-methylidene compounds the π-ethylene complexes RC5H4Mn(CO)2(C2H4) are formed.
