Structures of the l,3,5-Trisilacyclohexane-Iron Dicarbonyl-cyclopentadienyl Complexes and C₃H₆Si₃Cl₅Fe(CO)₂πcp and C₃H₆Si₃Cl₄(Fe(CO₂)πcp)₂ Trisilapentachlorocyclo-hexyl-dicarbonylcyclopentadienyliron C₃H₆Si₃Cl₅Fe(CO)₂πcp 1 and Trisilatetrachlorocyclohexyl-bis(dicarboncyclopentadienyliron)C₃H₆Si₃Cl₄(Fe(CO)₂πcp)₂ 2 are 1,3,5-Trisilacyclohexane complexes substituted by dicarbonylcyclopentadienyliron at one and two silicon atoms of the six-membered ring, respectively. The crystal and molecular structures were determined from single crystals ( 1 ; space group P2₁/a (No. 14); a = 1100.5 pm; b = 2033.9 pm; c = 843.3pm; β = 98.58°; Z = 4; MoKα-radiation; 3142h k l; R = 0.036. 2 ; space group P1 ; (No. 2); a = 1231.1 pm; b = 1267.3 pm; c = 1045.9 pm; α = 113.23°; β = 83.93°; γ = 115.00°; Z = 2; Mokα-radiation; 4196 h k 1; R = 0.065). In both complexes the six-membered rings of the carbosilane ligands are in skew-boat conformation. The bond lengths Fe? Si are 226.4 pm and 228.1 pm, respectively. The distances Si? C and Si? Cl are 186 pm and 206 pm in 1 and 187 pm and 209 pm in 2 . Their different lengths depend on the position in the ligand system and can be explained with the concept of bond orders.
