Reactions of (Cp(CO) sub 2 Fe double bond CHAr) sup + (Ar = p-C sub 6 H sub 4 OMe) with O double bond N-Ar prime (Ar prime = C sub 6 H sub 5 , p-C sub 6 H sub 4 NMe sub 2 ) and PhN double bond NPh

Organometallic products formed from the reaction of an electrophilic iron carbene complex with nitrosoarenes or azobenzene reflect net insertion of the ArN{double bond}X moiety into the Fe{double bond}CHAr bond. Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe-O-N(Ar{prime}){double bond}CHAr{sup +} and Cp(CO){sub 2}FeN(Ph)-N(Ph){double bond}CHAr{sup +} (Ar = p-C{sub 6}H{sub 4}OMe, Ar{prime} = p-C{sub 6}H{sub 4}NMe{sub 2}) have been isolated and spectroscopically characterized; the crystal structure of Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe-O-N(Ph){double bond}CHAr{sup +} is reported. Exposure of acetone solutions of Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe-O-N(Ar{prime}){double bond}CHAr{sup +} or Cp(CO){sub 2}FeN(Ph)-N(Ph){double bond}char{sup +} to light yields imine products Ar{prime}N{double bond}CHAr or PhN{double bond}CHAr, respectively. There is no evidence to support the formation of the simple stoichiometric iron-containing products of these reactions, the oxo and nitrene complexes Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe{double bond}O{sup +} and Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe{double bond}NPh{sup +}. Hydrolysis of the nitrone complexes Cp(CO){sub 2}Fe-O-N(Ar{prime}){double bond}CHAr{sup +} in aqueous acetone yields aldehyde products Ar{prime}CHO. 30 refs., 1 fig., 4 tabs.
