Abstract
The13C NMR parameters of several cyclobutabenzenes (1a-1e) and their corresponding complexes (cyclobutabenzene)M(CO)3(M = Cr, Mo, W. 2–4) are presented and discussed. Two cyclobutabenzenes 1b and 1d and their chromium tricarbonyl complexes 2b and 2d have been examined in greater detail: the signal assignments have been confirmed by 2 D-IN ADEQUATE and the one bond coupling constants 1J(13C13C) measured at natural abundance using 1 D-INADEQUATE. Although the results provide no insight into why the chromium complex of 1,2-dioxocyclobutabenzene (1e) is much more reactive at the keto groups than le itself, they do reveal a weak but not negligible alternation of the carbon s-character in the C-C bonds of the 6-membered rings both in the free cyclobutabenzenes and in the complexes, thus providing evidence for slight bond fixation (Mills-Nixon effect).
