Preparation of [Fe(C5H5)(dppe)(NCCH3)]Br and Its Conversion to Several Fe(C5H5)(dppe)X Compounds

Abstract
The compound [Fe(C5H5)(dppe)(NCCH3)]Br is conveniently prepared by irradiation of Fe(C5H5)(CO)2Br and dppe (dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenyl-phosphino)ethane) in acetonitrile. The acetonitrile ligand is easily displaced by anionic ligands (X = CN, SCN, SPh, I, Br, CH3 (as CH3MgI) and H (as LiAlH4)) to give the complexes Fe(C5H5)(dppe)X.
