@article{10272/16790, year = {2019}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10272/16790}, abstract = {The first examples of stable metal complexes with coordinated ethylene and carbon dioxide ligands are reported. Reaction of tris(ethylene) complexes mer-M(C2H4)3(PNP) (M = Mo and W; PNP = 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)pyridine) with CO2 yields the corresponding, mixed cis-M(C2H4)2(CO2)(PNP) derivatives. X-ray studies reveal six-coordinate structures exhibiting η2-ethylene and κ2-C,O carbon dioxide coordination. Remarkably, the formation of the molybdenum CO2 adduct occurs also in the solid state at room temperature, under 4 bar of CO2, in a nearly quantitative manner.}, organization = {We thank MINECO for support with Grants CTQ2017-82893-C2- 1-R and CTQ2017-82893-C2-2-R and a FPI fellowship (MA).
