Abstract
The rates of dissociation of the unique ligand from Cr(CO)5L have been determined from L P(C6H5)3, P(OC6H5)3, P(OCH3)3, and As(C6H5)3 by reaction with CO. The reactions were investigated from 80140°C and activation parameters were determined. The rate data were fully consistent with rate-determining dissociation of the ligand L. The order of ligand lability is As(C6H5)3 > P(C6H5)3 > P(OC6H5)3 > P(OCH3)3. For L P(C4H9)3 an equilibrium was observed and the equilibrium constant evaluated at 140 and 170°C. The equilibrium greatly favors Cr(CO)5P(C4H9)3 as the product. These studies allow the ligand binding to be compared quantitatively for these complexes. An activation of the CrP bond by room light has been noted.
