Reactions of CpW(NO)(CH₂SiMe₃)₂ with Lewis acids : characteristic chemistry of CpW(NO)(CH₂SiMe₃)(CH₂CPh₃)

The nitrosyl complex CpW(NO)R₂ (R = CH₂SiMe₃) forms 1:1 adducts via isonitrosyl linkages to Lewis acids such as AlMe₃ and Cp₃Er, i.e. CpWR₂(NO→A) (A = AlMe₃, ErCp₃). These adducts regenerate the starting dialkyl complex when treated with water. Protonation of CpW(NO)R₂ by HBF₄⋅0Me₂ can also be effec...
