Synthesis and Characterization of Bidentate Isonitrile Iron Complexes.

ABSTRACT: The divalent iron complexes trans-[FeBr₂(BINC)₂], [Cp*FeCl(BINC)] (Cp* = Me₅C₅), and [FeBr₂(CNAr₃NC)₂] with the chelating bis(isonitrile) ligands BINC (bis(2-isocyanophenyl)phenylphosphonate) and CNAr₃NC (2,2″-diisocyano-3,5,3″,5"tetramethyl-1,1':3',1″-terphenyl) have been prepared and characterized. Their subsequent reduction yields the di- and trinuclear compounds [Fe₃(BINC)₆], [Cp*Fe(BINC)]₂, [Fe(CNAr₃NC)₂]₂, and [K(Et₂O)]₂[Fe(CNAr₃NC)₂]₂. The molecular structures of all new species were determined by X-ray crystallography and compared to those of related iron carbonyl compl
