Ammonia reactivity with ferriotetrylenes: a structural snapshot of a highly dynamic process
The reaction of ammonia with the ferriotetrylenes Ar'EFeCp(CO)<sub>2</sub> (Cp = η<sup>5</sup>-C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>5</sub>; E = Sn(1), Pb(2); Ar' = -C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>-{C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>-2,6-<sup>i</sup>Pr<sub>2</sub>}<sub>2</sub>) afforded a product interpreted as either a tin amide hydride (3) or a tin ammonia complex, which has a very long Sn-N bond of 2.4289(3), and which readily regenerates 1 and NH<sub>3</sub> under ambient conditions.
