Abstract: Reported are the rates of reaction and activation parameters for COsubstitution reaction of M2(CO)10(M=Mn,Re) with Py in the presence of (p-CH3OCeH4)2TeO.The rate of reaction is the first order in concentrations of M2(CO)10 and of (p-CH3OC6H4)2TeO, but zero order in Py.One possible mechanism.is suggested for the reaction, which is similar to that proposed earlier for the corresponding reactions with (CH3)3NO as the O-atom transfer reagent.The difference of activities between (CH3)3NOand (p-CH3OC6H4)2TeO is discussed in terms of their basicity in this paper.
