	abstract = {This account summarizes our work with the title complexes, which are rare examples of electronically and coordinatively unsaturated transition-metal alkyls that can be isolated under ambient conditions. It first outlines the synthetic methods employed for the preparation of these compounds and then presents their distinctive physical properties. It then classifies the characteristic chemical properties of these complexes in terms of the reactivity being either metal or ligand based, and specific examples of particular transformations are illustrated with reference to the most studied systems.},

	abstract = {Treatment of (trimpsi)V(NO)Cl-2 (trimpsi = (BuSi)-Bu-t(CH2PMe2)(3)) in NEt3 with 2 equiv each of p-toluic acid and Proton Sponge affords lemon yellow (trimpsi)V(NO)(eta(1)-O2C-4-C6H4Me)(2) (1) in 47\% isolated yield. Similarly, reaction of (trimpsi)V(NO)Cl-2 with 2 equiv of AgOTf in CH2Cl2 provides lemon yellow (trimpsi)V(NO)(OTf)(2) (2) in a comparable yield. Alternatively, 2 can be obtained directly in 40\% yield by treating CH2Cl2 solutions of (trimpsi)V(CO)(2)(NO) at -60 degreesC with 2 equiv of AgOTf. Likewise, both benzoyl peroxide and diphenyl disulfide are capable of oxidizing (trimpsi)V(CO)(2)(NO) under similar conditions to form (trimpsi)V(NO)X-2-type complexes, namely (trimpsi)V(NO)(O2CPh)(2) (3) and (trimpsi)V(NO)(SPh)(2) (4), respectively. The reactions of (trimpsi)V(NO)X-2 (X = Cl, Br) with Mg(CH2SiMe3)(2)(.)x(dioxane) (either 0.5 equiv or an excess) in THF afford the orange-red alkyl complexes (trimpsi)V(NO)(CH2SiMe3)X (X = Cl (5), Br (6)) in reasonable yields. Other members of this family of complexes such as (trimpsi)V(NO)(CH2CMe3)Cl (7) and (trimpsi)V(NO)(Me)Cl (8) can also be obtained by employing similar metathetical methodology, but all attempts to synthesize (trimpsi)V(NO)(alkyl)2 complexes have to date been unsuccessful. All new complexes have been fully characterized by standard methods, and the solid-state molecular structures of 1(.)1.5C(6)H(5)Me and 5(.)2C(4)H(8)O have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.},

Both orange complexes have been subjected to single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses in order to establish their molecular geometries and their intramolecular metrical parameters.

The isolated [Cp*M(NO)(eta(2)-CH(2)Ph)(NCMe)](+) cations are quite electrophilic, being able to abstract Cl- from a NaCl IR cell to revert to their chloro precursors. However, treatment of the [Cp*W(NO)(eta(2)-CH(2)Ph)(NCMe)]BF4 salt with various unsaturated substrates (e.g., diphenylacetylene, 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, carbon monoxide, and acetone) in CDCl3 results in no detectable chemical reaction. Lewis bases weaker than Cl- evidently cannot displace the acetonitrile ligand from the coordination sphere of the metal or induce the benzyl ligand to diminish its hapticity. Such a diminution does occur for the CH(2)Ph ligand when the MeCN group in the cationic complexes is replaced by a carboxylate anion to produce neutral Cp{\textquoteright}M(NO)(eta(1)-CH(2)Ph)(eta(2)-O(2)CR) complexes. The latter complexes are obtainable by treatment of Cp*M(NO)(eta(2)-CH(2)Ph)Cl with AgO(2)CR (R = CH(Et)(Ph)) in CH2Cl2 and have been fully characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods.},
