Pentacarbonyl[diphenyl(perfluorovinyl)phosphine]molybdenum(0)

R. G. Peters, J. D. Palcic and R. G. Baughman

Abstract: In the title compound, [Mo{(C₂F₃)PPh₂}(CO)₅], the Mo atom occupies the center of a slightly distorted octahedral environment, bound to five carbonyl groups and one phosphine ligand, so that the local symmetry of the Mo(CO)₄P portion of the molecule is approximately C_4v. The P atom sits in a distorted-tetrahedral environment; the C-P-Mo angles are much larger than the C-P-C angles. The C₂F₃ group is rotationally disordered by 180°.
