C-H bond activation of hydrocarbons by a tungsten allene complex
Gentle thermolysis of the 18e alkyl-allyl complex, Cp*W(NO)(CH₂CMe₃)(η³-1,1-Me₂C₃H₃) (1.1), generates a reactive 16e allene intermediate, Cp*W(NO)(η²-H₂C=C=CMe₂) (A), by a first-order process with concomitant evolution of neopentane via hydrogen abstraction from the dimethylallyl ligand. Intermediat...
