Abstract
(Figure Presented) Magnetic personalities: [Fe(η4-C 14H10)2]- is an unprecedented example of an anionic 17-electron homoleptic polyarene transition-metal complex. This species is the first isolable homoleptic polyarene iron complex. It provides "naked" atomic Fe-1 in its reaction with 1,3-butadiene to yield the first structurally authenticated homoleptic bis(1,3-butadiene) metal complex, [Fe(η4-C4H 6)2]_ (see structure).
