Addition of (NO)(BF{sub 4}) to CH{sub 3}CNW(CO){sub 5} in CH{sub 2}Cl{sub 2} gives a mixture of five mononitrosyl compounds, mer-(cis-CH{sub 3}CN)(trans-NO)(CO){sub 3}W({mu}-F)BF{sub 3} (1), (mer,cis-(CH{sub 3}CN){sub 2}W(CO){sub 3}(NO))(BF{sub 4}) (2a), cis,cis,trans-(CH{sub 3}CN){sub 2}(CO){sub 2}(NO)W({mu}-F)BF{sub 3} (3), (fac-(CH{sub 3}CN){sub 3} W(CO){sub 2}(NO))(BF){sub 4} (4a), and trans-(NO)(CO){sub 4}W({mu}-F)BF{sub 3} (5); in a typical experiment the yield is 90%, and the ratio 1:2a:3:4a:5 is 47:14:11:1:27. Support for the identities of 1-5 is obtained by reaction of the mixture with Me{sub 3}P, giving (mer-(cis-CH{sub 3}CN)(trans-Me{sub 3}P)W(CO){sub 3}(NO))(BF{sub 4}) (7a), (cis,cis,trans-(CH{sub 3}CN){sub 2}(CO){sub 2}(NO)W(PMe{sub 3}))(BF{sub 4}) (8a), (trans-Me{sub 3}P(CO){sub 4}WNO)(BF{sub 4}) (9), and the previously reported compound (mer,cis-(Me{sub 3}P){sub 2}W(CO){sub 3}(NO))(BF{sub 4}) (10a). The reaction mixtures are analyzed by IR and {sup 1}H, {sup 13}C, and {sup 19}F NMR spectroscopy. In particular, the {sup 13}C NMR spectrum exhibits quintets for the carbonyl ligands of 1,3, 5 due to a dynamic spinning process of the (({mu}-F)BF{sub 3}){sup {minus}} ligand, and the {sup 19}F NMR spectrum exhibits doublets for the terminal fluorine atoms (which are further separated into {sup 10}B and {sup 11}B isotopomers) near {minus}153 ppM and quartets for the bridging fluorine atoms from {minus}203 to {minus}238 ppM. Independent synthesis and isolation in good yield of 2b-c, 4a-d, 7b-c, and 8b (where the anions for a-d are (BF{sub 4}){sup {minus}}, (SbF{sub 6}){sup {minus}}, ((C{sub 6}H{sub 5}){sub 4}B){sup {minus}}, and (PF{sub 6}){sup {minus}}{sup {minus}}, respectively) are described, as are the independent synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of 3, 5, and 6. 4 figs., 1 tab.
