Arsine complexes manganese

Although trialkyl- and triarylbismuthines are much weaker donors than the corresponding phosphoms, arsenic, and antimony compounds, they have nevertheless been employed to a considerable extent as ligands in transition metal complexes. The metals coordinated to the bismuth in these complexes include chromium (72—77), cobalt (78,79), iridium (80), iron (77,81,82), manganese (83,84), molybdenum (72,75—77,85—89), nickel (75,79,90,91), niobium (92), rhodium (93,94), silver (95—97), tungsten (72,75—77,87,89), uranium (98), and vanadium (99). The coordination compounds formed from tertiary bismuthines are less stable than those formed from tertiary phosphines, arsines, or stibines. 

The chemistry of technetium(II) and rhenium(II) is meagre and mainly confined to arsine and phosphine complexes. The best known of these are [MCl2(diars)2], obtained by reduction with hypophosphite and Sn respectively from the corresponding Tc and Re complexes, and in which the low oxidation state is presumably stabilized by n donation to the ligands. This oxidation state, however, is really best typified by manganese for which it is the most thoroughly studied and, in aqueous solution, by far the most... 

Complexity in the manganese and rhenium pentarbonyl halides substitution arises from the fact that these decompose in inert solvents to form the halogen-bridged dimers [M(CO)4X]2. Both monomers and dimers react with phosphines, arsines, pyridine, aniline etc. to give the disubstituted compounds M(CO)3XL2. Thus three final products or any mixture of them may be obtained, depending upon the precise reaction conditions...
