Abstract

The higher n-alkyl hydrides [W{(η-C₅H₄)CMe₂(η-C₅H₄)}(R)H](R = {(CH₂)_nCH₃}, n = 1–4) and the isotopically labelled analogues [W(η-C₅D₄)C(CD₃)₂(η-C₅D₄)}(R)D], (R = {(CH₂)_nCH₃} (n = 1–4) and [W{(η-C₅H₄)CMe₂(η-C₅H₄)}{CD₂CD₃}H] have been prepared and the hydrogen/deuterium exchange processes under thermal conditions in these compounds have been investigated by NMR spectroscopy. In every case of all the possible alkyl hydrogens of the alkyl groups R only H/D exchange with the α-CH₂ methylene hydrogens was observed.
