Abstract

Abstract The synthesis of the potential bridging ligand (C 6 H 5) 2 PCH 2 CH 2 Si (CH 3) 2 C 5 H 4 (3) is described. The ferrocene (6 derived from 3 has been found to form macrocyclic complexes with metal fragments NiCl 2, NiBr 2, and Co 2 (CO) 6. Although monomeric, bimetallic products might have been expected based upon the reduced steric demands of ligand 3 relative to an analogous ligand,(C 6 H 5) 2 PCH 2 Si (CH) 3) 2 C 5 H 4 (1), it ...
