Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of a series of new osmium(ll)dibromido complexes of the type [(116-Ar)OsLBr2] (Ar = p-cymene and C6Me6, L = phosphines, phosphites and CO) have been carried out successfully. The complexes were obtained in good yields and characterized by 1 Hand 31 P NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The dibromido complexes were then used in the preparation of osmium bis(alkenyl) and osmacycloalkane complexes.
