  abstract

  Reactions of tricarbonyl–indenylmethylmolybdenum with phosphorus ligands yield, in the first instance, products of the same type as those obtained from the analogous -cyclopentadienyl complex. The rates of reaction, both in tetrahydrofuran and in n-hexane, are however appreciably faster than those for the -cyclopentadienyl complex. Possible explanations for this increase in rate are discussed.In all cases, the initial product undergoes a further reaction which is believed to be an isomerization similar to those previously described for complexes of the type (-CH)Mo(CO)(L)I."
