Cooperative bond activations by a tucked-in iron complex

Abstract

Herein, we report the first example of a ‘tucked-in’ iron diphosphine complex, formed through deprotonation of a Cp*–(C[H with combining low line]3) (Cp* = C5Me5) group by n-butyllithium. The reactivity of this complex was demonstrated by activation of organic and metal-containing substates, including CO2, benzaldehyde, Br–AuI–PPh3, B(C6F5)3, and HBCy2 (Cy = cyclohexyl).
