Irradiation of CpV(CO)4 in the presence of tht (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) affords the complex CpV(CO)3tht (1), in which one carbonyl group has been replaced by the thioether ligand. 1 reacts readily with several ligands including 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and pyrrolidine (pyrr), providing a mild-condition pathway to the new derivatives cis-CpV(CO)2bpy (2) and CpV(CO)3pyrr (3). The structures of 1 and 2 have been determined by X-ray analysis. Both complexes are orthorhombic: 1 has a Pbca space group with a = 14.171 (4) ?, b = 14.184 (5) ?, c = 13.035 (4) ?, V = 2620 (1) ?3, Z = 8, and Dcalcd = 1.461 g cm-3, and the final R factor for 1937 reflections was 0.054; 2 has a Pnma space group with a = 7.687 (4) ?, b = 15.073 (6) ?, c = 12.593 (5) ?, V = 1459 (1) ?3, Z = 4, and Dcalcd = 1.494 g cm-3, and the final R value for 1423 reflections was 0.035. The structure of 3 has been assigned on the basis of its 13C and 1H NMR, IR, and analytical data.
