Bis pentadienyl metal Complexes with Additional Ligands

Bis(pentadienyl)metal Complexes with Additional Ligands 

Two metals, titanium and vanadium, readily form mono(ligand) adducts on reaction of their respective M(2,4-C7Hn)2 compounds with CO or PF3255. Both M(2,4-C7Hn)2(PF3) 

Because the structural data is plagued substantially from pseudo-symmetry, only a few general comparisons may be made. The average metal carbon bond distances appear
