Cyclooctyne reacts with the trianionic pincer ligand supported alkylidyne [ BuOCO]WCC(CH)(THF) (1) to yield tungstacyclopropene (3) and tungstacyclopentadiene (4) complexes. The ratio of 3 and 4 in the reaction mixture depends on the stoichiometry of the reaction. The maximum concentration of 3 occurs with one equiv. of cyclooctyne and 4 is the exclusive product of the reaction above three equivalents. Both complexes 3 and 4 convert to the cyclooctyne ring-opened product 5 upon heating. While the conversion of 4 to 5 is accompanied by formation of polycyclooctyne as a white precipitate during the reaction, conversion of 3 to 5 is homogeneous. Exhibiting Ring Expansion Polymerization (REP), complexes 4 and 5 initiate the polymerization of phenylacetylene to generate cyclic poly(phenylacetylene) (c-PPA).
环辛炔与三阴离子钳形配体支持的亚烷基[BuOCO]W≡C(CH)(THF)(1)反应,生成钨杂环丙烯(3)和钨杂环戊二烯(4)配合物。反应混合物中3和4的比例取决于反应的化学计量比。3的最大浓度出现在环辛炔为1当量时,而4是超过3当量反应的唯一产物。加热时,配合物3和4都会转化为环辛炔开环产物5。虽然4转化为5的过程中伴随着多环辛炔作为白色沉淀的生成,但3转化为5是均相的。配合物4和5表现出扩环聚合(REP),引发苯乙炔聚合生成环状聚(苯乙炔)(c-PPA)。
