Conclusions
-
1.
The binuclear complex Fe2-μ-(o-C6H4CH2NC6H5)(CO)6 and the trinuclear complex Fe3-μ-(o-C6H4CH2NC6H5)(CO)8 undergo interconversion by addition and cleavage of iron carbonyl moieties.
-
2.
The arene ligand in Fe3-μ-(o-C6H4CH2NC6H5)(CO)8 is bonded by an exocyclic double bond to one of the iron atoms, and by five π-electrons to the Fe(CO)2 group.
-
3.
Iron carbonyl fragments are readily cleaved from Fe3-μ-(o-C6H4CH2NC6H5)(CO)8 by treatment with sulfur or Fe2(CO)6S2.
