Syntheses and electronic structures of decamethylmanganocenes

  • 1. Univ. of California, Berkeley

Description

The syntheses of [(C5(CH3)5)2Mn]PF6, (C5(CH3)5)2Mn, and Na[(C5(CH3)5)2Mn] are described. Magnetic susceptibility, infrared, electrochemical, NMR, and reactivity studies suggest the formulation of these complexes as low-spin 16-, 17-, and 18-electron planar metallocenes. EPR spectra of the neutral complex are consistent with the 2E/sub 2g/ configuration determined for other low-spin 17-electron metallocenes. 1 figure, 3 tables
