Synthesis of transition metal isocyanide compounds from carbonyl complexes via reaction with Li[Me3SiNR]
Wesley Sattler and Gerard Parkin
The reaction between a transition metal carbonyl compound, LnMCO, and Li[Me3SiNR] yields the corresponding isocyanide derivative, LnMCNR, thereby providing a new route to transition metal isocyanide compounds that does not require the use of free isocyanides as reagents.
