Abstract
It is shown that iron carbonyls react with vinylsilanes, CH 2CHSiR 3 (where R is Me, OMe, CHCH 2or Cl) and vinylsiloxanes to give rise to iron tetracarbonyl π-complexes. If two or more vinyl groups are attached to the silicon atom, iron tricarbonyl compounds similar to 1,4-diene complexes are also formed. The reaction of 1,2-divinyltetramethyldisilane with Fe 2(CO) 9 unexpectedly leads also to mono- and bis(iron tetracarbonyl) complexes. IR, 1H and 13C NMR, and mass spectra of the compounds obtained are discussed and some chemical conversions are performed.
