Reductive Hexamerization of CO Involving Cooperativity Between Magnesium(I) Reductants and [Mo(CO)6]: Synthesis of Well-Defined Magnesium Benzenehexolate Complexes
The first examples of magnesium benzenehexolate complexes are prepared by reductive hexamerizations of CO, in reactions that are initiated (or catalyzed) by [Mo(CO)<sub>6</sub>]. These reactions are closely related to Justus von Liebig’s classical 1834 study on the reduction of CO gas with molten potassium, which yields K<sub>6</sub>C<sub>6</sub>O<sub>6</sub> (amongst other products), by an as yet unknown mechanism.
