Some chemistry of ethyltetramethylcyclopentadienylcobalt: arene, ethylene, butadiene, ammine, tertiary phosphine, and chloro-derivatives

Abstract

Tri-n-butyl(ethyltetramethylcyclopentadienyl)tin, Sn(etmcp)Bun3, reacts with cobalt(II) chloride to give, after treatment with chlorine, [{Co(etmcp)Cl(µ-Cl)}2] and [Co3(etmcp)2Cl6]. Using these compounds as precursors, many derivatives of the Co(η-etmcp) system have been prepared; examples are [(η-etmcp)Co(µ-Cl)3Co(η-etmcp)][FeCl4], [Co(η-etmcp)(PPh3)Cl2], [Co(η-etmcp)L2Cl][PF6][L2= Ph2P(CH2)2PPh2, or (PMe2Ph)2], [Co(η-etmcp)L3][PF6][L3=(NH3)3, (MeCN)3, (MeCN)2(Me2C[double bond, length as m-dash]NH), (CH2[double bond, length half m-dash]CHCN)3, η-benzene, or η-toluene], and [Co(η-etmcp)L2][L2=(η-C2H4)2, butadiene, or 1,5-C8H12].
