The Reaction of Disilylacetylenes with Cyclopentadienyl Manganese. Formation of Vinylidene Complexes by 1,2-Silyl Shift

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1992.339

Both cyclic and acyclic acetylenes substituted by two silyl groups on each end undergo facile 1,2-silyl shift in the reaction with cyclopentadienyltricarbonylmanganese under photochemical conditions to give 2,2-disilylvinylidene complexes.Several interest
