Reactivity patterns of thermally stable, terminal, electrophilic phosphinidene complexes towards diazoalkanes: oxidation at the phosphorus centre and formation of P-bound η1-phosphaazine, η1-phosphaalkene and η3-diazaphosphaallene complexes

Abstract

The thermally stable, terminal phosphinidene complexes [CpM(CO)21-PNiPr2)]AlCl4 (Cp = Cp, Cp*; M = Fe) and [Cp*M(CO)31-PNiPr2)]AlCl4 (M = Cr, Mo, W) react with Ph2C[double bond, length as m-dash]N[double bond, length as m-dash]N to form terminal P-coordinated η1-phosphaazine and η3-diazaphosphaallene ligands, respectively, whereas [CpFe(CO)21-PNiPr2)]AlCl4 reacts with Me3SiCHN2 affording a terminal phosphorus bound η1-phosphaalkene complex.
