Organometallic radical-initiated cleavage of the metal chelate and thiazole rings in a cyclopentadienylchromium complex.
Extensive ring cleavage in the mercaptobenzothiazole chromium complex CpCr(CO)2(SCSN(C6H4)) (2), initiated by cyclopentadienyl chromium tricarbonyl, produced novel polynuclear complexes 3-5.
