Abstract
Nucleophilic addition of Mg(C5H5)2 to Sn(C5H5)2 (1:2) in tetrahydrofuran (thf) gave [Mg(thf)6]2+ 2[Sn(η3-C5H5)3]2 1 whereas the reaction of fluorenyllithium (2 or 3 equivalents) resulted in nucleophilic substitution of both C5H5 ligands and in the formation of [Li(thf)4]+ [Sn(C13H9)3]- 2; the anion of 1 is essentially planar whereas that in 2 has a distorted-pyramidal structure.
