Abstract
The synthesis and reactivity of metallacycle-carbene complexes is presented within the context of a potential route toward cyclopentadiene molecules. We also discuss our recent results on the successful cyclization of two alkynes and a carbene moiety. This latter chemistry involves cobaltacyclopentadiene complexes which are converted to η4-cyclopentadiene compounds upon reaction with ethyl diazoacetate.
