Abstract

The zwitterionic bridging vinyliminium complex [Fe2{m-h1:h3-C(Tol)]C(CS2)C]N(Me)2}(m-CO)(CO)-(Cp)2] (5a) undergoes the addition of two equivalents of MeO2CeC^CeCO2Me affording the bridging bis-alkylidene complex [Fe2{m--C(Me)C{C(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)CSC(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)S}CNMe2}(m-CO)(CO)(Cp)2] (6). One alkyne unit inserts into a CeCS2 bond of the bridging ligand, with consequent rearrangement that leads to the formation of a diene. The reaction shows analogies with the enyne metathesis. The second alkyne is incorporated into the bridging frame via cycloaddition at the thiocarboxylate function, affording a 1,3-dithiolene. The complexes [Fe2{m-h1:h3-C(R0)]C(CS2)C]N(Me)(R)}(m-CO)(CO)(Cp)2] (R = Xyl, R0 = Tol, 5b; R = p-C6H4OMe, R0 = Me, 5c; Xyl = 2,6-Me2C6H3), treated with MeO2CeC^CeCO2Me and then with HBF4, undergo the cycloaddition of the alkyne with the dithiocarboxylate group and protonation of the dithiocarboxylate carbon, affording the complexes [Fe2{-C(R0)]C{C(H)SC(CO2Me)C(CO2Me)S}C]N(Me)(R)}(m-CO)(CO)(Cp)2][BF4] (R ¼ Xyl, R0 ¼ Tol, 7a; R ¼ p-C6H4OMe, R0 ¼ Me, 7b), respectively. The X-ray molecular structure of 6 has been determined.
