PROCESS FOR MAKING METHYLCYCLOPENTADIENYL MANGANESE TRICARBONYL COMPOUNDS

摘要

Cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl compounds are made by reacting a mixture of 0.25-0.55 mole of manganese acetate and 0.45-0.55 mole of a bis-cyclopentadienyl manganese compound with 0.5-2.1 moles of an alkyl aluminum compound (e.g., triethyl aluminum) in the presence of 0.75-1.25 moles of an ether per mole of said alkyl aluminum compound and reacting the mixture with carbon monoxide at 65-175.degree.C and 300-2500 psig.
