Description/Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of iron and manganese complexes containing the tetrachlorocatecholboryl (BO2C6Cl4) ligand are reported. Crystallographic study of the methylcyclopentadienyl derivative (eta(5)-C5H4Me)Fe(CO)(2)BO2C6Cl4 allows comparison of structure and bonding with related complexes of the type (eta(5)-C5R5)Fe(CO)(2)B(OR)(2) and reveals that the relative orientation of (eta(5)-C5H4Me)Fe(CO)(2) and BO2C6Cl4 moieties is influenced by intramolecular C---H...O hydrogen bonding. Additionally, an alternative route to catecholboryl complexes from dilithiocatechol is reported.
