Complex rearrangements : Rhenabenzynes, which are metallaaromatic compounds related to metallabenzenes (see scheme), can be obtained from thermally unstable rhenium–carbyne complexes through rearrangement reactions. The rhenabenzyne complex was characterized by elemental analysis, 1 H NMR spectroscopy, and X‐ray diffraction analysis. The results show that it is possible to prepare metallabenzynes with different transition metals.
