Abstract: | Iron and Nickel Carbonyl Complexes with Substituted Distibane and Antimonido Ligands The reactions of enneacarbonyldiiron with substituted distibanes yield mononuclear complexes [Fe(CO)4SbR2SbR2] (R = C2H5, t-C4H9), a dinuclear complex [(CO)4FeSbPh2SbPh2Fe(CO)4] and antimonido-bridged compounds [(CO)3Fe(SbR2)2-Fe(CO)3] (R = C2H5, C6H5). Product of the reaction of tetramethyldistibane with tetracarbonylnickel is the binuclear complex [(CO)3NiSbMe2SbMe2Ni(CO)3]. The 1H-n.m.r., i.r., and mass spectra of the new compounds are reported. |
