Reactions of [MoReCp(μ-PMes*)(CO)6] with internal alkynes RC≡CR yielded the phosphapropenylidene-bridged complexes [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CRCR)(CO)5] (Mes* = 2,4,6-C6H2tBu3; R CO2Me, Ph). Terminal HC≡CR1 gave mixtures isomers [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CHCR1)(CO)5] and [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CR1CH)(CO)5], first isomer being major (R1 CO2Me) or unique tBu), indicating relevance steric repulsions ...
