[3]Ferrocenophanes with the bisphosphanotetryl bridge: inorganic rings on the way to tetrylenes

Abstract

A series of [3]ferrocenophanes with functional P–E–P motifs (E = group 14 fragments) is reported. Out of these, the silicon compounds with the general formula Fe(C5H4PtBu)2SiXY (XY = Cl2, Br2, I2, H2, HCl) have been characterized by spectroscopic means and the bonding situation was analyzed using X-ray crystallography and quantum chemical calculations. Despite the two stereogenic phosphanyl centers, most of the [3]ferrocenophanes have been obtained as single isomers in the course of stereospecific reactions. The corresponding stannylene Fe(C5H4PtBu)2Sn has been obtained in the form of its dimeric adduct.
