Thermolysis of the η2-alkyne complex (η5-C5H5)Co(PPh3) [η2-(MeO2C)C=C(CO2Me)] (1-DMAD) leads to formation of an ortho-metalated vinyl-phosphonium derivative (η5-C5H5) Co[η2-(MeO2C)HC=C(CO2Me) PPh2(η1-o-C6H4)] (4) as well as a small amount of the tricobalt bis(carbyne) cluster [(η5-C5H5)Co]3 [μ3,η3-C(CO2Me)]2 (3-CO2Me). Thermolysis of 1-DMAD in the presence of added triphenylphosphine gives 4 as the major product, with no evidence for formation of 3-CO2Me. Complexes 4 and 3-CO2Me were characterized by X-ray crystallographic analyses.
