N2  - The reactions of triphenylphosphine and triphenylarsine with (&#960;- arene)M(CO)3 (M = Cr, Mo, W) to yield fac-M(CO)3(RPh3)3 (R = P, As) have been reexamined. Anomalies in the earlier literature have been resolved by the isolation of two solid state forms of each complex and by a study of the decomposition products of these compounds. Tricarbonyl complexes of tritolyl-phosphines and -arsines are also reported and their behaviour suggests steric effects initiate decomposition. In addition, a number of (&#960;-arene)M(CO)3 compounds were shown to react with carbon monoxide to form M(CO)6.
