Abstract

The one electron reduction of Cp*Fe(dppe)(OSO2CF3) (2) with cobaltocene gave the d7 iron(I) Cp*Fe(dppe) (3, 90%) as thermally stable orange crystals, whereas the one-electron oxidation of 3 with ferrocenium hexafluorophosphate afforded the new d6 iron(II) 16-electron complex [Cp*Fe(dppe)][PF6] (4, 98%) isolated as an stable orange powder. The X-ray crystal structures of 3 and 4 show that their major structural difference concerns the “pyramidalization” of the metal center.
