Abstract: The modification of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes by substitution of organotin groups on the methine carbon was carried out by the reaction of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methyllithium(LiCHPz2) with organotin halide(R3SnX), yielding a series of R3SnCHPz(R=alkyl or aryl; Pz=substituted pyrazole) ligands. Upon the treatment of these ligands with W(CO)5THF, they displayed versatile reactivities, depending on the properties of substitutions on the tin atom. The reaction of Ar3SnCHPz2 with (W(CO)5THF) resulted in the oxidative addition of the tin-carbon(sp3) bond to the tungsten(0) center, while the similar reaction of Bz3SnCHPz2(Bz=benzyl; Pz=3,5-dimethylpyrazole) only gave decarbonylation complex of (Bz3Sn)(CHPz2W(CO)4). In addition, the reactions of Ph2BzSnCHPz2 and (PhMe2CCH2)3SnCHPz2 with (W(CO)5THF) resulted in the partial decomposition of ligands to yield CH2Pz2W(CO)4 and , with the loss of organotin groups.

Key words: Bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane, Organotin, W(CO)6
