Propargyl alcohol derivatives of Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-EE')(E,E'=S,Se or Te): Synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of (CO)(6)Fe-2{mu-EC(H)=C(CH2OH)E'}(E=Se or Te; E'=S, Se or Te); Crystal structure of (CO)(5)(PPh(3))Fe-2{mu-SeC(CH2OH)=C(H)Se}

Abstract

The propargyl alcohol derivatives (CO)(6)Fe-2{mu-EC(H)=C(CH2OH)E'} (E = Se or Te; E' = S, Se or Te) were obtained from the room-temperature reaction of Fe-2(CO)(6)(mu-EE') with propargyl alcohol and were characterized by IR and H-1, C-13, Se-77 and Te-125 NMR spectroscopy. The structure of the PPh(3)-substituted derivative (CO)(5)(PPh(3))Fe-2{mu-SeC(CH2OH)=C(H)Se} was established by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study.
