Abstract

The kinetics of ligand replacement on irani-Cr(CO)4L2 for L = P(OC6H5)3, P(C4H9)3, and P(OCH3)3 by CO have been studied between 100 and 140 °C in decane solution. The reactions proceed by rate-determining dissociation of the ligand L. Qualitative data are also reported for Cr(CO)4(P(C6H5)3)2 and Cr(CO)4(As(C6H5)3)2. The ordering of dissociation rates As(C6H5)3 > P(C6H5)3 > P(C4H9)3 > P(OC6H5)3 > CO > P(OCH3)3 is consistent with a very strong dependence of the-bonding capability of the ligand, in contrast to dissociations from Cr(CO)5L. Activation parameters are presented for dissociations of P(OC6H5)3, P(C4H9)3, and P(OCH3)3..
