Popis: The sequential reaction of (η 5 -C 5 Me 5 )Re(NO)(PPh 3 )(CCCCH) with n -BuLi (one equivalent), 9-fluorenone (OCAr 2 ; 1.5 equivalents), and Me 3 O + BF 4 − (3.0 equivalents) gives thermally labile (η 5 -C 5 Me 5 )Re(NO)(PPh 3 )(CCCCC(OMe)Ar 2 ) ( 2a ) as an orange–red powder in 69% yield. Analogous reactions with 2,7-dichloro- and 2,7-dibromofluorenone give the corresponding complexes 2b , c (68–71%). Treatment of 2a–c with BF 3 ·OEt 2 (one equivalent) gave the title complexes ( 3a – c ) as labile dark blue powders (79–83%) that exhibited diagnostic cumulenic IR bands ν CCC (1993–1987, 1902–1894 cm −1 ) and ReC 13 C-NMR signals (256.9 ppm, J CP =10.8 Hz), and richly featured UV–vis spectra. Attempts to prepare stabile derivatives of 3a – c (additions of phosphines, amines, TCNE; anion metatheses) invariably gave a multitude of products.
