Abstract

Abstract Metal-catalyzed nitrene transfer reactions arouse intense interest as clean and efficient procedures for amine synthesis. Efficient Rh-and Ru-based catalysts exist but Fe alternatives are actively pursued. However, reactive iron imido species can be very short- lived and getting evidence of their occurrence in efficient nitrene-transfer reactions is an important challenge. We recently reported that a diiron (III, II) complex is a very efficient ...
