Iron-mediated C-H bond amination by organic azides on a tripodal bis(anilido)iminophosphorane platform

摘要

The bis(anilido)iminophosphorane complex, abbreviated as [(~(Mes)N_2N~(Ad))Fe(THF)], can react with alkyl azides to yield ligand-based C-H bond amination products suggesting the high reactivity of iron(iv)-imido species supported by the tripodal bis(anilido) iminophosphorane ligand platform [~(Mes)N_2N ~(Ad)]~(2-).
