Abstract

The syntheses and structural features, and their relevance to bonding, of Fischer carbene complexes of the group VII transition metals containing three different metal substituents, all in electronic contact with the carbene carbon, are described. Although the stabilization of hydroxycarbene or hydrido-acyl complexes of rhenium carbonyls is not easily achieved, the existence of these species was confirmed in the composition of isolated secondary ...
