Bis(1,2,3,4-η⁴-anthracene)ferrate(1-): A Paramagnetic Homoleptic Polyarene Transition-Metal Anion

Magnetic personalities: [Fe(η4‐C14H10)2]− is an unprecedented example of an anionic 17‐electron homoleptic polyarene transition‐metal complex. This species is the first isolable homoleptic polyarene iron complex. It provides “naked” atomic Fe−I in its reaction with 1,3‐butadiene to yield the first s...

Description
Summary:Magnetic personalities: [Fe(η4‐C14H10)2]− is an unprecedented example of an anionic 17‐electron homoleptic polyarene transition‐metal complex. This species is the first isolable homoleptic polyarene iron complex. It provides “naked” atomic Fe−I in its reaction with 1,3‐butadiene to yield the first structurally authenticated homoleptic bis(1,3‐butadiene) metal complex, [Fe(η4‐C4H6)2]− (see structure).
