Abstract

Vinylidene species of the type Mn(C5H4CH 3)[(H3C)2PCH2CH2P(CH 3)2](=C=CR1R2) (R1 = R2 = H; R1 = H, R2 = Ph) can be fully reversibly coupled to yield the dinuclear complexes [(C5H 4CH3)(dmpe)Mn≡ CC(R1)(R 2)C(R1)(R2)C≡Mn(dmpe)(C5H 4CH3)[PF6]2(R1, R 2 = H; R1 = H, R2 = Ph) by an oxidation / reduction cycle involving formation and cleavage of a C-C σ bond.
