Abstract
Microwave irradiation of 1,6-diynes, RC≡C(CH2)4C≡CR, with Fe(CO)5 in dimethylether leads to the facile and clean formation of cyclopentadienone complexes [{η4-C4R2C(O)C4H8}Fe(CO)3] in good yields resulting from a [2 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition. The molecular structures of three examples (R = Ph, 2,4-F2C6H3, 4-MeOC6H4) have been obtained. The addition of HBF4 leads to the clean and reversible formation of cationic hydroxycyclopentadienyl complexes [{η5-C4R2C(OH)C4H8}Fe(CO)3][BF4]. Sequential addition of hydroxide and acid has also been carried out in an attempt to prepare hydroxycyclopentadienyl–hydride complexes. These were largely unsuccessful but in one case a Shvo-type complex with a bridging hydride was detected by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Reasons for the differing behaviour of [{η4-C4(SiMe3)2C(O)C4H8}Fe(CO)3] and the related aryl-functionalised derivatives are considered.
