Reactions of M[(OOCC5H4)Mn(CO)3]2[O(H)Me]4 (M = Ni(II), Co(II), or Mn(II)) adducts with 1,10-phenanthroline in chloroform at room temperature are found to yield complexes PhennM[(OOCC5H4) Mn(CO)3]2 (Co(II) or Mn(II), n = 2; M = Ni(II), n = 3). A similar reaction of dimeric Cu2[μ-(OOCC5H4) Mn(CO)3]4[O(H)Me]2 yields mononuclear PhenCu[(OOCC5H4)Mn(CO)3][O(H)Me] · MeOH. The resulting complexes are isolated in high yields and characterized by chemical analysis, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography.
