Synthesis of a distanna [2]ferrocenophane and reactivity of [2]ferrocenophanes towards elemental sulfur and selenium
摘要:
Here we report the synthesis and crystal structure of a new [2]ferrocenophane [Fe(eta(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)(SntBu(2))(2)] with a sterically demanding distannanediyl bridge. The reactivity of the title compound towards selected main group elements was examined and in addition, this reactivity pattern was established for the related diboranediyl bridged [2] ferrocenophane [Fe(eta(5)-C(5)H(4))(2)(BNMe(2))(2)].
