Isolation and Reactivity of Tetrylene-Tetrylone-Iron Complexes Supported by Bis(N-Heterocyclic Imine) Ligands.

ABSTRACT: The germanium iron carbonyl complex 3 was prepared by the reaction of dimeric chloro(imino)germylene [IPrNGeCl]₂ (IPrN=bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-iminato) with one equivalent of Collman's reagent (Na₂ Fe(CO)₄ ) at room temperature. Similarly, the reaction of chloro(imino)stannylene [IPrNSnCl]₂ with Na₂ Fe(CO)₄ (1 equiv) resulted in the Fe(CO)₄ -bridged bis(stannylene) complex 4. We observed reversible formation of bis(tetrylene) and tetrylene-tetrylone character in complexes 3 vs. 5 and 4 vs. 6, which was supported by DFT calculations. Moreover, the Li/Sn/Fe trimetallic complex 12 has been isolated from the reaction of [IPrNSnCl]₂ with cyclopentadienyl iron dicarbonyl anion. The computationa
