We studied the reactivity of an osmium vinyl complex containing a coordinated hydroxyl group OsC12(PPh3)2[CH=C(PPh3)- CHPh(OH)] (1) toward bidentate ligand 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (DPPB), acid li...We studied the reactivity of an osmium vinyl complex containing a coordinated hydroxyl group OsC12(PPh3)2[CH=C(PPh3)- CHPh(OH)] (1) toward bidentate ligand 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (DPPB), acid ligand (CO), base (Cs2CO3) and heat. Two osmium vinyl complexes OsC12(dppb)[CH=C(PPh3)CHPh(OH)] (2) and OsCI2(CO)2(PPh3)[CH=C(PPh3)CHPh(OH)] (3), as well as two relatively rare phosphonium-containing osmafuran complexes Os(q2-OCOO)(PPha)z[CHC(PPha)CPhO] (4) and OsClz(PPh3)z[CHC(PPh3)CPhO] (5), were obtained in high yields from these reactions. All products were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and their structures were further confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction.展开更多
