We have found that coordination of B(C6F5)(3) to an oxo ligand in tungsten oxo alkylidene bis(aryloxide) complexes, where the aryloxide is O-2,6-(mesityl)(2)C6H3 (HMTO) or 2,6-diadamantyl-4-methylphenoxide (dAdPO), accelerates the formation of metallacyclobutane complexes from alkylidenes as well as the rearrangement of metallacyclobutane complexes. In contrast, a tungstacyclopentane complex, W(O)(C4H8)(OHMT)(2), is relatively stable toward rearrangement in the presence of B(C6F5)(3). A careful balance of steric factors allows a single isomer of W(O)(trans-4,4-dimethylpent-2-ene)(dAdPO)(2) to be formed from W(O)(CH-t-Bu)(dAdPO)(2) in the presence of both ethylene and B(C6F5)(3).
