Abstract
The effects of dispersion on migratory insertion reactions and related iron–carbon bond dissociation energies pertaining to (Me2IPr)FeR2 (R = neoPe, 1-nor), and the conversion of (Me2IPr)Fe(NAd)R2 to (Me2IPr)Fe{N(Ad}R)R are investigated via calculations and structural comparisons. Dispersion appears to be an underappreciated, major contributor to common structure and reactivity relationships.
