Mercuration with Mercury(II) Trifluoroacetate of (eta~6-Aniline)-or (N,N-dimethylaniline)-(eta~5-cyclopentadienyl)iron(II)

摘要

The reaction of mercury(II) trifluoroacetate with the hexafluorophosphate of the eta~6-aniline-eta~5-cyclopentadienyliron(II) cation under reflux in dry ethanol gives rise to N-mono- and N,N-disubstituted mercury-containing salts of this cation.The same mercury-containing salts have been synthesized by the action of mercury(II) trifluoroacetate on the deprotonation product of the (eta~6-aniline)(eta~5-cyclopentadienyl)-iron(II) cation.Direct mercuration of the [eta~6-(N,N-dimethylaniline)](eta~5-cyclopentadienyl)iron(II) cation into the para position of the benzene ring of the arene ligand has been performed.The reactivity of the compounds obtained has been studied.
