The photochemical synthesis of the tungsten carbonyl metallocarborane [Eq. (18) ] is also effective in the preparation of the molybdenum carbonyl analog. The resulting air-sensitive complexes show chemical behavior similar to the cyclopentadienyl analogs, C5H5M(CO)3, in that they undergo protonation with anhydrous HOI and met.hylation with CH3I. They also react further with metal hexacarbonyls to afford bimetallic complexes 54) ... 

An interesting reaction for the synthesis of cyclopropanes makes use of a tungsten carbonyl compound as the electrophile <05JOC5852>. An initial conjugate addition of lithiated epoxide 101 onto tungsten carbonyl 102 leads to intermediate 103, which then does an intramolecular ring opening of the epoxide to provide cyclopropane 104. 

A tungsten carbonyl complex of the 1-cyanophosphole has also been used with success in the synthesis of other P-substituted complexes (e.g. the P—OH complex (296) see below). 

Another synthesis of D-oUvose derivative exploited a tungsten carbonyl catalyzed alkynyl alcohol cycloisomerization reaction [54,55]. This useful method allows for synthesis of variety of glycals from an achiral precursor (35), which after enantioselective reduction and Sharpless epoxidation afforded intermediates 39 and 42 (by Mitsunobu inversion), precursors of unnatural D-rhamnal (40) and valuable L-fucal (43) derivatives, respectively (Scheme 4).
