Abstract
The diiron μ-aminocarbyne imidoyl complexes [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(R))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(C≡CR')=NXyl)Cp2] [R = Xyl, R' = Ph (1a);[1] R = Xyl, R' = Tol (1b);[1] R = Me, R' = Ph (1c); R = Me, R' = SiMe3 (1d); Xyl = 2,6-C6H3Me2, Tol = 4-C6H4Me] have been prepared by the addition of lithium acetylides to precursors containing a terminal isocyanide ligand. The treatment of 1a-c with CF3SO3CH3 afforded the alkynyl(amino)carbene derivatives [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(R))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(C≡CR')N(Me)(Xyl))Cp2][SO3CF3] [R = Me, R' = Ph (2a); R = Xyl, R' = Ph (2b); R = Xyl, R' = Tol (2c)] in high yields. The reactions of 2b,c with CH3OH/NaBF4, NH2R and NaBH4 led to [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(Xyl))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(CH=C(Ph)OMe)N(Me)(Xyl))Cp2][BF4] (3), [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(Xyl))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(CH=C(Tol)NHR)N(Me)(Xyl))Cp2][SO3CF3] [R = Et (4a); R = Ph (4b)], and [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(Xyl))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(CH=CHTol)N(Me)(Xyl))Cp2][SO3CF3] (5) in yields of 65-80%. Complexes 3-5 were formed by the selective functionalization of the alkynyl group in 2b,c. Complex 2c reacted with NaCH(CN)2/CH2(CN)2 and NaCH(CO2Me)2 to yield [Fe2(μ-CN(Me)(Xyl))(μ-CO)(CO)(C(N(Me)(Xyl))CH=C(Tol)C(CN)C(NH2)C(CN)2)Cp2] (6) and [Fe2(μ-C(NXyl)C(C(Tol)=C(CO2Me)2)CN(Me)(Xyl))(μ-CO)2Cp2] (7) in yields of 65 and 60%, respectively. All the products were purified by alumina chromatography, alumina being presumably involved in the formation of 3, and characterized by elemental analysis and IR and NMR spectroscopy.
