[(μ₂-CO)Cp₂(OC)₂Fe₂][Cp(OC)₂Fe]SiH:  A SiH-Functionalized Tris(metallo)silane. Synthesis from [Cp(OC)₂Fe]₂SiH₂¹

Abstract

The first tris-metalated silane, [(μ2-CO)Cp2(OC)2Fe2][Cp(OC)2Fe]SiH, was prepared via photoreaction of Cp(OC)2Fe−CH3 with the bis(ferrio)silane [Cp(OC)2Fe]2SiH2.

Structural characterization of the anionic halfsandwich complex and its reactivity towards stannanes and distannanes

“…The outstanding preparative versatility of this route has led to a vast range of organometallic species so far, most of which have been obtained from group 13 [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] and group 14 precursors [16][17][18][19][20].…”

Synthesis, Structure, and Photochemistry of Disilyl Derivatives of the Fp (Fp = (η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2) System: FpMeSi(CH2)4SiMeFp and FpPhMeSiSiMePhFp

“…The related bimetallic systems exhibit significantly different chemistry due to the capacity for metal−metal interactions. , For example, photochemical treatment of FpSiMe 2 SiMe 2 Fp resulted in the sequential formation of mono(silylene)- and bis(silylene)-bridged diiron complexes (Scheme 1). 10b,c Such reactions also proceed via equilibrating silyl silylene intermediates. To examine the potential of this chemistry in ring systems, we report the synthesis, characterization, and photochemistry of We also study the related diiron 1,2-diphenyl-1,2-dimethyldisilyl system FpMePhSiSiPhMeFp.…”

(Cyclopentadienyl)dicarbonylmethyliron ((η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2CH3, FpMe), a Seminal Transition-Metal Alkyl Complex: Mobility of the Methyl Group

“…In the presence of CO the doubly carbonyl bridged triplet complex is converted into a diamagnetic singly carbonyl bridged complex in the singlet ground state equivalent to the silyl product in eq . , The analogous singly carbonyl bridged complex has been reported to form when using the corresponding secondary tin hydrides to form bridging stannylene materials. , However, this chemistry does not occur with t Bu 2 SiH 2 , which, as noted above, yields only the simple monosilyl complex FpSi( t Bu) 2 H . Clearly there is a range of chemistry in this arena that is very dependent upon the group 14 element and the substituents on this element; more research is needed to obtain a clear picture of the true impact of these variables.…”
