Abstract

Chlorine is displaced in l-chloro-l-methyl-2, 5-diphenylsilole by dicarbonyl (q5- cyclopentadienyl) ferrate (I) to give a silole with a Si-Fe u bond. Attempts to displace the carbonyl ligands to give the corresponding silaferrocene were unsuccessful. This new dole behaves as an efficient q4-ligand with transition metals, giving a new series of complexes which present an interesting reactivity. Thus the Si-Fe bond can be cleaved without ...
