Cyclopentadienyl(methyl)iron dicarbonyl reacts with P(C6H5)3, P(m-C4H9)3, P(OC6H6)3, and P(OC4H9)3 in refluxing tetrahydrofuran to give almost quantitative yields of the complexes C5H5Fe(CO)(COCH3)L (L = phosphine or phosphite). The properties of these derivatives are listed, and the infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra are briefly discussed. Under similar experimental conditions there is no reaction between C5H5Fe(CO)2CH3 and diethyl sulfide, iodide ion, p-toluidine, and p-chloroaniline; pyridine affords a noncarbonyl decomposition product. Furthermore, in contrast to its behavior in tetrahydrofuran, C5H5Fe(CO)2CH3 does not react with triphenylphosphine in refluxing hexane. © 1966, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
