Metal atom chemistry as a direct pathway to access homoleptic mono- and dinuclear isonitrile compounds of the iron triad Fe, Co, and Ni

The co-condensation of atomic metal vapors of iron, nickel and cobalt with toluene, followed by a direct reaction with isonitriles, between −30 °C and −78 °C, yields stable homoleptic metal isonitrile complexes. Complexes of Fe, Ni, and Co with DippNC (Dipp = 2,6-(CH(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>) and 4-fluorophenylisonitrile (4-FPI) are obtained in high yields using this method. This method offers an efficient and straightforward approach compared to previously reported syntheses.

Abstract

The co-condensation of atomic metal vapors of iron, nickel and cobalt with toluene, followed by a direct reaction with isonitriles, between −30 °C and −78 °C, yields stable homoleptic metal isonitrile complexes. Complexes of Fe, Ni, and Co with DippNC (Dipp = 2,6-(CH(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>) and 4-fluorophenylisonitrile (4-FPI) are obtained in high yields using this method. This method offers an efficient and straightforward approach compared to previously reported syntheses.
