Notes:
The cationic iron (alkynyl)aminocarbene complexes [Cp(CO)2Fe(C(NHR)C≡CSiMe3][PF6], (R = C6H5, p-CH3C6H4) 1 derived from aromatic amines smoothly react with cyclopentadiene in dichloromethane to yield the cycloadducts 2. No reaction was observed for complexes derived from sterically demanding aliphatic amines, like L-alanine tert-butyl ester. For comparison, the alkynyl-substituted acyl iron compounds Cp(CO)2Fe(C=O)C≡C̊ (R = SiMe3, C6H5) 3 were investigated, requiring TiCl4 catalysis to undergo the cycloaddition reaction. The structures of the cycloadducts 4 were determined by X-ray crystallography.
