The application of acyclic (diene) iron complexes and (pentadienyl) iron cations in organic
synthesis has steadily increased over the past 20 years. This is due to their ease of …

Reaction of lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) with (»; 4-l, 3-cyclohexadiene) Fe (CO) 3
complexes bearing functionalized side chains at C-5, under an atmosphere of carbon …

Nucleophilic attack on coordinated polyenes is one of the paradigms of Jt-organometallic
chemistry. 1 Where reactions of this type occur with predictable regioselectivity they can be …

1. Their preparation is easy: in most cases, they are obtained by reaction of (1, 3)-dienes
with various (carbonyliron) derivatives which transfer the Fe (CO) 3 unit. These complexes …

The reaction of six 1-substituted (pentadienyl) iron cations (1–6) with malonate anions was
examined. The electronic nature of substituents present on the pentadienyl ligand, the steric …

The reactions of 1, 2-dimethyl-, 1-phenyl-2-methyl-, 1, 4-dimethyl-, and 1-phenyl-4-methyl-
substituted tricarbonyl (pentadienyl) iron (1+) cations (3a, 3b, 4a, 4b respectively) with …

Tricarbonyl (l, 2-dimethylpentadienyl) iron (+ 1)(3a), tricarbonyl (2-methyl-1-phenylpentadi-
enyl) iron (+ l)(3b), tricarbonyl (l, 4-dimethylpentadienyl) iron (+ l)(4a), and tricarbonyl (4 …

Stereoselective construction of contiguous stereogenic centers of acyclic compounds by
using the Fe (CO) 3 moiety as a mobile chiral auxiliary is described. Although the reactions …

The reaction of acyclic tricarbonyl (pentadienyl) iron (1+) cations with allyl trimethylsilane or
with excess furan leads to (E, E-diene) iron complexes. Attack of these weak nucleophiles …

Secondary phosphines such as HPPh2 and to the cationic iron dienyl complex [η5‐(1R)‐
ethylnopadienyl) Fe‐(CO) 3]+(1) by nucleophilic addition. The phosphonium salt initially …
