Abstract

A pentaphosphino iron(II)-chloride species [^tSiP ₃(dmpm)FeCl][Cl] (1-Cl) (^tSiP₃ = ^tBuSi(CH₂PMe₂)₃, dmpm = Me ₂PCH₂PMe₂) was prepared from [( ^tSiP₃Fe)₂(μ-Cl)₃][Cl] and dmpm. This species was reduced to give the corresponding iron(0) complex, ^tSiP₃(dmpm)Fe (3), in near quantitative yield. Analogous complexes [SiP₃(dmpe)FeCl][Cl] (2-Cl) and SiP₃(dmpe)Fe (4) (SiP₃ = MeSi(CH₂PMe₂)₃, dmpe = Me₂PCH₂CH₂PMe₂) were prepared in the same manner as 1 and 3 but with lower yields because of competitive ligand rearrangement reactions that gave byproduct of trans-(dmpe)₂FeCl ₂ and (dmpe)₅Fe₂ (5). [^tSiP ₃(dmpm)FeH][A] (6) was prepared from the reaction of 3 with weak acids (HA), and the pK_a of 6 was established to be approximately 25. Attempts to prepare pentaphosphino-iron(0) complexes of the form SiP ₃(PR₃)₂Fe using PPh₃ and PMe ₃ resulted in cyclometalated products, SiP₃FeH((o-C ₆H₄)PPh₂) (7) and SiP₃FeH(CH ₂PMe₂) (8). Synthesis and characterization of these complexes, including crystal structures of 1-5, are reported.
