The regioselectivity of reaction of tricarbonyl(1,1-dimethylindane)chromium with selected electrophiles and nucleophiles has been shown to be influenced by the preferred conformation of the tricarbonylchromium group.Nucleophiles preferentially react at carbon atoms eclipsed by a chromium-carbonyl bond and electrophiles at carbon atoms in staggered positions.When similar reactions were attempted with some chelated arenechromium dicarbonyl phosphorus compounds only low yields of substitution products were obtained.
