Hydrodealkoxylation, -dehalogenation, and -deamination, occur while lithium triethylborohydride is added to [η6-alkoxy-, halogeno-, and -(dimethylamino)benzene]tricarbonylchromium complexes. In the case of (η6-benzene)tricarbonylchromium, addition of deuteride to the benzene ring gives reversibly an anionic tricarbonyl(η5-cyclohexadienyl)chromium complex which can be trapped by triphenyltin chloride to yield the neutral binuclear complex (η5-C6H6D)(CO)3Cr-Sn(C 6H5)3. The latter complex molecular structure has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
