Abstract
The carbon-13 N.M.R. spectra of eleven substituted tricarbonylcyclohexadienyliron salts (1) have been determined and individual resonances assigned. Substituent effects have been deduced and compared with corresponding effects in cyclohexadienyl cations. The structures of the tricarbonylcyclohexadienyliron salts are discussed with reference to chemical shift data. The proportions of irreversible nucleophilic attack at the terminal positions in the unsymmetrical 2-substituted salts are compared with the observed chemical shifts at these carbon atoms.
