A systematic approach to the generation of long-lived metal alkane complexes: combined IR and NMR study of (Tp)Re(CO)2(cyclopentane).
Short wavelength photolysis of (Tp)Re(CO)(3) (Tp = tris(pyrazol-1-yl)borate) at low-temperature in cyclopentane yielded (Tp)Re(CO)(2)(cyclopentane), an alkane complex with three nitrogen ligands that was characterised by NMR spectroscopy.
