Iron-substituted arsine, [Fe(AsPh2)(dppe)(η-C5H5)]·2thf (dppe = Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2, thf = tetrahydrofuran)
Abstract
The reaction of K(AsPh2)·2C4H8O2-1,4 with [FeI(dppe) (η-C5H5)] (dppe = Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2) afforded a good yield of the new metalloarsine [Fe(AsPh2)(dppe)(η-C5H5)]·2thf (thf = tetrahydrofuran) which has been structurally characterised.
