Reaction of [Ni(PEt3)2(C2H4)] with trichloroethene
Reaction of C5Cl6 with [Ni(PMe3)2(C2H4)]
A mixture of [NiCl2(PMe3)2] (0.29 g, 1.03 mmol),
a small amount of zinc powder and C5Cl6 (0.17 mL,
1.06 mmol) was treated under an atmosphere of ethene with
tetrahydrofuran (1.5 mL). Immediately a violet color devel-
oped. After stirring for 15 min the mixture was given on top
of a short silica gel column and chromatographed using Et2O
as eluent. A red fraction was obtained which was evapo-
A solution of [NiCl2(PEt3)2] (630 mg, 1.70 mmol) in
10 mL toluene was treated with sodium dust (300 mg,
13 mmol) under C2H4 for 20 h, filtered and cooled to
−78 ◦C. After addition of 0.17 mL C2HCl3 (1.70 mmol) the
reaction mixture was warmed to ambient temperature within
two hours. Evaporation of the solvent in vacuo was followed
by chromatography on Al2O3 using Et2O as eluent. A yellow
band developed, which was collected. Evaporation in vacuo
produced 3b as a yellow oil (350 mg, 47% yield). Careful re-
crystallization from pentane at −30 ◦C gave 3b as large red
crystals. – 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ = 5.23 (t, J = 3 Hz, 1H),

Reaction of C5Cl6 with [Pt(PPh3)2(C2H4)]
Reaction of [Ni(PBu3)2(C2H4)] with trichloroethene
A solution of [Pt(PPh3)2(C2H4)] (360 mg, 0.48 mmol)
in toluene (10 mL) was treated at −40 ◦C with C5Cl6
(0.43 mL, 2.68 mmol). After keeping the reaction mixture
at −78 ◦C for 16 h the precipitate was isolated by fil-
tration, washed three times with 20 mL portions of pen-
tane and dried in vacuo. Yield: 0.14 g of a green-blue
solid. – MS ((+)-FAB): m/e = 755.4 (PtP2C36H30Cl), 735.4

A solution of [NiCl2(PBu3)2] (800 mg, 1.50 mmol)
in 10 mL toluene was stirred with 230 mg sodium dust
(10.0 mmol) under C2H4 for 20 h, then cooled to −78 ◦C and
treated with 0.15 mL C2HCl3 (1.50 mmol). Stirring was con-
tinued for 15 min at this temperature and then for 90 min at
r. t. After evaporation of the solvent in vacuo the residue was
taken up in a small amount of pentane and chromatographed
on silica gel. Elution with Et2O produced a yellow band
from which after evaporation in vacuo a yellow oil could be
isolated: 3c. Recrystallization from MeOH at −78 ◦C gave
a yellow flocculent precipitate, which was isolated. How-
ever, upon warming to r. t. the compound melted again. –
