Synthesis and full characterization of cationic isostructural "sandwich" diimine-coinage metal ethylene complexes are reported. Ethylene self-exchange kinetics proceeds by an associative exchange mechanism for Cu and Au complexes. The fastest ligand exchange was observed for Ag complex <b>8a</b>. The upper limit of Δ<i>G</i><sup>‡</sup>, assuming associative ligand exchange, was found to be ca. 5.0 kcal/mol. Ethylene self-exchange in Cu complex <b>7b</b> proceeds with Δ<i>G</i><sub>298</sub><sup ...[more]
