UV photolysis of ( mu -hydrido)( mu -ethenyl)dirhenium octacarbonyl, ( mu -H)( mu CH equals CH//2)Re//2(CO)//8(I), in the presence of ethylene affords ( mu -hydrido)( mu -butenyl)dirhenium octacarbonyl complexes. A mechanism is proposed in which the initial step is photodissociation of CO from I, as photolysis of I in the presence of **1**3CO or PPh//3 results in CO substitution. Subsequent steps in the formation of the mu -hydrido mu -butenyl species are coordination of ethylene, insertion of ethylene into the Re-H or Re-ethenyl sigma bond, recoordination of CO, C-C or C-H reductive elimination to yield Re//2(CO)//8(1-butene), and oxidative addition of a vinylic C-H bond of coordinated butene.

The photochemical reaction of Re2(CO)10 with H2O in THF and other solvents has been studied, with use of radiation of varying wavelength.The initial reaction leads to Re2(CO)9(OH2), formed upon irradiation at 313 nm.This product is shown to form via a pri
