Abstract
The electrosynthesis of Fe-H, Fe-Si and Fe-Sn has been achieved in the perspective of replacing mercury amalgams and alkali metals by electr icity for ecological purposes. A consumable Mg anode, a stainless stee l grid cathode, THF solvent and n-Bu(4)NBr electrolyte are used. The e lectroreduction of [Fe(eta(5)-C(5)R(5))(CO)(2)](2) (R = H or CH3) lead s to [Fe(eta(5)-C(5)R(5))(CO)(2)(H)] and, in the presence of ECl (E = SiMe(3) or SnBu(3)), [Fe(eta(5)-C5H5(dppe)(H)] is produced from [Fe(et a(5)-C5H5)(eta(6)-C6H5CH3)](PF6-)-P-+ and dppe.
