Abstract
1,3- or 1,5-Cyclo-octadiene undergoes transannular dehydrogenation with decacarbonyldirhenium to give the bicyclic derivative, tricarbonyltrimethylene-1,2-cyclopentadienylrhenium(I), C8H9Re(CO)3. The structure of the product, suggested on the basis of infrared, proton magnetic resonance, and mass spectra, has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The Re(CO)3 group is bonded to the cyclopentadienyl ring in the same way as in many [M(CO)3Arene] complexes.Keywords
