Abstract
The geometric factors unique to β.CH bond addition are discussed. Extended Huckel Molecular Orbital calculatins of the reaction profile for the conversion of [η5-C5H5Co(PH3)C2H5]+ into [η5-C5H5Co(PH3)(C2H4)(C2H4)H]+ shows that an intermediate structure with an agostic interaction is more stable than the octahedral ethylene-hydride complex. The tranformation from the agostic structure to the pentacoordinate species involves a barrier.
