Abstract
The reactions of Mo(NtBu)(=CHtBu)(CH2But)2 with a series of alcohols are investigated. Depending on the nature of the alcohol ROH, three organometallic products are observed a) Mo(NtBu)(=CHtBu) (OR)(CH2 tBu), b)Mo(NtBu)(OR)(CH2 tBu)3 and c) Mo(NtBu)(OR)(OR’)(CH2 tBu)2. The mechanism of formation of these products is discussed.
