Abstract: | The reactions of tin(II) chloride in tetrahydrofuran with the η1-allyl systems, [η5-Cp(CO)2Fe allyll, have been reexamined, and an extension made to SnBr2 and GeCl2.dioxan. The insertion compounds, [η5-Cp(CO)2FeMX2 allyl], which contain the Group IVB element bound to iron, are the major products, but, in the presence of excess metal dihalide, these slowly react to form the trihalometal compounds [η5-Cp(CO)2FeMX3]. The insertion reactions are inhibited by small amounts of a radical scavenger, and occur initially with allylic rearrangement. In methanol, the process is more complex; an unknown species, possibly an iron-olefin dipolar intermediate, and substantial amounts of trihalometal-iron compounds are formed additionally. A mechanistic scheme for the processes is discussed. |
