(C2H4)(t? 2-C4H6) is formed prior to CpRh (r/4-C4H6). Conversion of the? j2-butadiene tothe?? 4-butadiene complex can be achieved photochemically or thermally. When CO or Bu'NC are the substrates, dinuclear complexes (CpRhL) 2 (/uL) are formed in addition to substitution products. The photolysis method effects (a) the introduction of ligands that otherwise substitute only above 100 C (Ph3P, Me2SO, alkenes),(b) the formation of labile complexes which cannot be formed by thermal methods (cyclohexene, CH3CN,») 2-butadiene), and (c) the formation of the new dinuclear complex [CpRh (ButNC)] 2 (M-ButNC). For the labile complexes photolysis at low temperature is employed, since the products decompose at or below room temperature. Evidence is presented for the formation of CpRh (C2H4)(t? 2-toluene) on photolysis at 193 K intoluene solution. An alternative route to substitution products involves photochemical conversion of 1 in CH3CN to CpRh (C2H4)(CH3CN) at 253 K followed by addition of ligand. The photochemical reactions are consistent with the mechanism deduced from earlier flash photolysis and matrix isolation experiments in which CpRh (C2H4) and CpRh (C2H4) S (S= solvent) act as intermediates. Photolysis with a C2D4 atmosphere demonstrates the existence of an additional pathway which causes H/D exchange within the ethene ligand. This pathway probablyinvolves a vinyl hydrideisomer of 1 as an unstable intermediate. There is no evidence for H/D exchange with the solvent. The complexes CpRh (C2H4) L (L= MegSO, CH3CN, CH2= CHSiMe3) have a substantially higher barrier to rotation about the rhodium-ethene bond than has been reported for other complexes of this type. The dinuclear photoproduct [CpRh (Bu* NC)] 2 (it-ButNC) exhibits two fluxional processes, first interconversion of two conformersby internal rotation about the CN bond of the bridging isonitrile (AG*= 45.7±1.6 kJ mol" 1) and second exchange of bridging and terminal isonitriles (AG*= 61.8±0.8 kJ mol" 1).
