The interaction of IrCl3(tht)3, tht = tetrahydrothiophene, and mesityl (2,4,6-trimethylphenyl, mes)-magnesium bromide in diethyl ether gives Ir(mes)3 as a very air-sensitive crystalline solid.Interaction of partially dehydrated IrCl3 with mesityllithium i

The reaction of ReCl4(thf)2 (thf = tetrahydrofuran) with o-methylphenylmagnesium bromide leads to the isolation of Re(o-MeC6H4)4, which has been characterized by X-ray crystallography.Air oxidation of this compound allows the isolation of the previously reported paramagnetic ReO(o-MeC6H4)4, which has also been characterized by X-ray crystallography.The interaction of aryl Grignard reagents with NEt4 (solv = acetonitrile or tetrahydrofuran) leads to the isolation of homoleptic, tetrahedral ruthenium(IV) species, Ru(aryl)4, aryl = o-methylphenyl, 2,6-dimethylphenyl, and p-t-butylphenyl.Tetrakis(mesityl)ruthenium(IV), mesityl = 2,4,6-trrimethylphenyl, and Ru(o-MeC6H4)4 can be obtained from the interaction of diruthenium (II,II) tetra-acetate, Ru2(μ-O2CMe)4, with the respective Grignard reagents.The X-ray crystal structure of Ru(o-MeC6H4(4 has also been determined.
