The reaction of Ph3P=CH2 with Mo(NAr)(CHCMe 3)[OCMe (CF3)2]2 (Ar = 2,6-i-Pr 2C6H3) produces the anionic alkylidyne complex {Ph3PMe}{Mo(NAr)(CCMe3)[OCMe(CF3) 2]2}. An X-ray structure determination of the complex reveals a bent Mo-N-C angle for the imido group, as expected when a metal-carbon triple bond is present. The anion has been shown to react with electrophiles predominantly at the imido nitrogen.
