A proximity effect in arene π-complex formation from the reaction system of an aryl Grignard reagent and anhydrous chromic chloride was investigated. The yields of arene π-complexes and any accompanying reaction products were compared by the systematic variation of the aryl Grignard reagent employed. Phenyl Grignard gave the best yield of π-complex followed by the benzyl, mesityl and β-ethyl phenyl analogues. The styryl and phenylacetylenyl analogues did not form any π-complexes.The coupling reaction of benzyl groups gave a new π-complex, π-bibenzyl-π-toluene chromium, along with toluene, bibenzyl and trans-stilbene.Trans-stilbene was found without forming a trace amount of cis-stilbene. A mechanism for this stereospecific and α-hydrogen elimination coupling reaction is proposed.

Competition reactions using dimethylketene (DMK) – aluminum chloride complexes on a variety of substituted benzene derivatives gave partial rate factors. The logs of these Pfx values when plotted versus σ+ values gave two line segments of ρ = −6.59 for less active substrates, and ρ = −0.92 for more active substrates. Similar results were found for diphenylketene (ρ = −9.47 and −1.07).These results were rationalized by analogy to vinyl cation alkylations. A pair of π complexes (outer then inner) occur between initial approach of the reagent and final, product-determining π-complex formation. In one of these complexes the C=C bond of the ketene complex may be able to back-bond in a manner similar to that found in inorganic complexes of CO and metals.
