The complex [OsCp{魏3-<i>Pi>,<i>Ci>,<i>Ci>-PiPr2[C(CH3)鈺怌H2]}(CH3CN)]PF6 (1) reacts with (2-pyridyl)methylenecyclopropane, at room temperature, to give initially the cyclobutylidene derivative [Os(畏5-C5H5)(鈺?img src="/templates/jsp/_style2/_achs/images/tiebar-below-start.gif" class="tbBelow" alt="tiebar below start"/>CCH2CH2CH-<i>oi>-C5H4N){PiPr2[C(Me)鈺怌H2]}]PF6 (2), as a result of the ring expansion of the alkylidenecyclopropane unit. Over time complex 2 rearranges into the cyclobutene derivative [Os(畏5-C5H5){畏2-C(鈺怌HCH2CH2)-<i>oi>-C5H4N}{PiPr2[C(Me)鈺怌H2]}]PF6 (3). The reaction of 1 with (2-pyridyl)methylenecyclopropane at room temperature also affords the phosphinomethanide metallacycle [Os(畏5-C5H5){魏4-<i>Pi>,<i>Ci>a,<i>Ci>b,<i>Ni>-PiPr2[Ca(Me)CH2CH)(CbCH2CH2-<i>oi>-C5H4N]}]PF6 (4) as a minor product, which becomes the major product of the reaction at 45 掳C. This osmacyclopentane results from the C鈥揅 coupling of the isopropenyl substituent of the phosphine ligand and the organic substrate. In acetone at 75 掳C, the reaction of 1 with (2-pyridyl)methylenecyclopropane leads to the 2-alkylidene-1-osmacyclobutane [Os(畏5-C5H5){魏3-<i>Ni>,<i>Ci>a,<i>Ci>b-Ca(CH2CbH2)(鈺怌H-<i>oi>-C5H4N)}{PiPr2[C(Me)鈺怌H2]}]PF6 (5), as a consequence of the oxidative addition of one of the C(sp2)鈥揅(sp3) bonds of the cyclopropane unit of the substrate to the osmium atom, along with 6, a diastereomer of 4. Complexes 3鈥?b>5 have been characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. DFT calculations suggest that all of the reaction products are derived from a common key 1-osma-2-azacyclopent-3-ene intermediate (D).
