Ld. Field et Av. George, THE USE OF HIGH REACTION PRESSURES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF ACETYLIDE COMPLEXES OF IRON, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 454(1-2), 1993, pp. 217-219
High pressures (100-800 MPa) have been used to assist the synthesis of
acetylide complexes of iron. The complex FeH(C=CPh)(dmpe)2 (dmpe = 1,
2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane) was formed quantitatively in 30 min fr
om the reaction of FeH2(dmpe)2 with phenylacetylene in toluene under a
pressure of 800 MPa.
