However, our continuing study of the characteristic reactivity of Group 6 organometallic nitrosyl complexes has recently revealed a number of new product complexes which result from N-O bond cleavage of the nitrosyl groups in the reactants. The various reactions and reaction conditions during which these complexes undergo facile nitrosyl N-O bond dissociation are summarized, and mechanistic ideas as to why these bond cleavages occur are also presented.}, keywords = {(ETA-5-C5ME5)RU(NO), ACTIVATION, COORDINATED NITRIC-OXIDE, COORDINATIVELY UNSATURATED BRIDGING, GAS-PHASE, GROUP 6, LIGANDS, MIGRATORY INSERTION, MOLYBDENUM, NITROSYL, NITROSYL BOND CLEAVAGE, OXIDATIVE ADDITION-REACTIONS, OXO COMPLEXES, TUNGSTEN}, isbn = {0260-3594}, url = {://A1995RH84300003}, author = {Legzdins,Peter and Young, M.
