[3+2+1] cycloaddition involving alkynes, CO and bridging vinyliminium ligands in diiron complexes: a dinuclear version of the Dötz reaction?

Abstract

The vinyliminium complex [Fe2{μ-η13-C(SiMe3)[double bond, length as m-dash]CHC[double bond, length as m-dash]N(Me)2}(μ-CO)(CO)(Cp)2][SO3CF3] reacts with HC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CR (R = CPh2OH), affording a mixture of the 2,4,6-trisubstituted oxo-η5-cyclohexadienyl complex [Fe{η5-C6H2O(NMe2)(SiMe3)(R)}(Cp)], the 2,6-disubstituted phenol C6H3R′(NMe2)OH (R′ = CHPh2) and 1,2,4-trisubstituted ferrocene [1-NMe2-2-R-4-SiMe3-Fc]. The corresponding reaction with HC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CR (R = CMe2OH) yields analogous products: [Fe{η5-C6H2O(NMe2)(SiMe3)(R′)}(Cp)] (R′ = CMe[double bond, length as m-dash]CH2), the phenol C6H3R′(NMe2)OH together with [1-NMe2-2-R-4-SiMe3-Fc].
