The palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions of {eta}{sup 5}-iodocyclopentadienyl complexes of Fe, W, Mn, and Re with Bu{sub 3}SnC{triple bond}CH yield the corresponding {eta}{sup 5}-ethynylcyclopentadienyl derivatives ({eta}{sup 5}-HC{triple bond}CC{sub 5}H{sub 4})ML{sub n} (M = Fe, W, Mn, Re). Upon reaction with Et{sub 2}NSnR{sub 3} (R = Me, Bu), the acetylenic proton is replaced with a trialkyltin group, forming the {eta}{sup 5}((trialkylstannyl)ethynyl)cyclopentadienyl derivatives ({eta}{sup 5}-R{sub 3}SnC{triple bond}CC{sub 5}H{sub 4})ML{sub n}. A second palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction between these trialkyltin derivatives and ({eta}{sup 5}-iodocyclopentadienyl)metal complexes affords the heterobimetallic complexes L{sub n}M({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}H{sub 4})C{triple bond}C({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}H{sub 4})M{prime}L{sub m} (M and M{prime} = Fe, W, Mo, Mn, Re). The crystal structure of Ph{sub 3}P(CO){sub 2}Mn({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}H{sub 4})C{triple bond}C({eta}{sup 5}-C{sub 5}H{sub 4})W(CO){sub 3}CH{sub 3} confirmed the general structure of these heterobimetallic complexes.
