The preparation and reactivity of some cationic rhenium carbonyl complexes

The hexacarbonyl cation Re(CO) + 6 reacts with nucleophiles of the type OR − to give alkoxycarbonyl derivatives. The preparation of a new cationic ethylene complex [Re(CO) 5C 2H 4] + is described and its reactivity towards nucleophiles compared with that of Re(CO) + 6.
