Abstract

The synthesis of trigonal bipyramidal, square planar, and octahedral bis (phosphine) complexes of the formula trans-LyM (P ((CH2) nCHCH2) 3) 2, and their conversion to gyroscope-like molecules trans-Ly via three-fold intramolecular alkene metathesis/ hydrogenation sequences, is reviewed. New data involving bis (phosphite) complexes are then described. Reactions of P (NMe2) 3 and HO (CH2) nCHCH2 (n= a, 3; b, 4; c, 5; d, 6; e ...
