Research Abstract |
Diene-iron complexes shows various characters, such as a protecting group for conjugated dienes etc. However, there are few examples directly using a diene moiety. η^3-Allylcation intermediates are generated when iron complexes are treated with Bronsted acid. The similar intermediate from diene-iron complexes would be formed on treatment of diene-iron complexes with Lewis acid. We found that a diene-iron complex bearing a leaving group at C3 of diene reacted with allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of ^iBuAl(OTf)_2. In this study, we examined whether other diene-iron complexes react with allylsilane in the presence of Lewis acid. Various acyclic diene-iron complexes bearing methanesulfonyloxy group at C3 of diene reacted with allyltrimetylsilane in the presence of BuAl(OTf)2, and the allylated products were obtained in good yields. Next, the similar reaction using cyclic diene-iron complexes was carried out, but the expected product was not obtained. Thus, the ligand of iron was changed from carbonyl to phoshorus in order to increase the electron density of the diene moiety. The corresponding allylated product was obtained in moderate yield when diene-iron complex bearing trimethy phosphate as a ligand of iron. Furthermore, substitution trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy group at C3 instead of methanesulfonyloxy group increased the yield of the allylated product.
