Abstract
Abstract Hexaethylidenecyclohexane (I) in dioxane reacts with chromium tricarbonyl-triacetonitrile with double 1.5-sigmatropic hydrogen migration to give the chromium tricarbonyl complex III, the structure of which has been determined by NMR and X-ray analysis. Heating solutions of III results in a further rearrangement to form the chromium tricarbonyl complex of 1,3,5-triethyl-2,4,6-trivinylbenzene (V). The latter releases the ligand IV on prolonged heating in an atmosphere of carbon monoxide.
