Organic Syntheses with Transition Metal Complexes, 52 1). - N-Vinylaminocarbene and N-(2-Propenyl)aminocarbene Complexes by Addition of Ketene Imines to Carbene Iron ComplexesKetene imines R(Me)C = C = NPh (2, R = Me, Et, i-Pr) form 1 : 1 adducts with the carbene iron complex (CO)4,Fe=C(OEt)Ph (1). The initial step of the reaction involves an attack of the nitrogen atom of 2 at the carbene carbon atom of 1 and a subsequent rearrangement to give N-vinylaminocarbene complexes (E/Z)-4. In a parallel process with different regiochemistry the central carbon of the CCN unit is attached to the carbene carbon to yield π-allyl,σ-complexes (E/Z)-3. Alkylation of 3a with [Et3O]BF4 leads to the formation of a cationic N-(2-propenyl)-aminocarbene complex 6a. Protonation of 4 with trifluoroacetic acid results in a ring contraction to give the four-membered metallacycles 7. X-ray data are reported for prototypes (Z)-4c and 6a.
