Zusammenfassung, Abstract
A route to directly access mixed Al-Fe polyphosphide complexes was developed. The reactivity of pentaphosphaferrocene, [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] (Cp*=C5Me5), with two different low-valent aluminum compounds was investigated. The steric and electronic environment around the [Al-I] centre are found to be crucial for the formation of the resulting Al-Fe polyphosphides. Reaction with the sterically demanding [Dipp-BDIAlI] (Dipp-BDI={[2,6-(Pr2C6H3NCMe)-Pr-i](2)CH}(-)) resulted in the first Al-based neutral triple-decker type polyphosphide complex. For [(Cp*Al-I)(4)], an unprecedented regioselective insertion of three [Cp*Al-III](2+) moieties into two adjacent P-P bonds of the cyclo-P-5 ring of [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] was observed. The regioselectivity of the insertion reaction could be rationalized by isolating an analogue of the reaction intermediate stabilized by a strong sigma-donor carbene.
