Description

The reaction of a phosphite complex, [Cp(CO)2Fe{P(OPh)3}]PF6, with Et4NF in CH2Cl2 at room temperature yielded a mixture of metallafluorophosphoranes, Cp(CO)2Fe(PF4) (1) and Cp(CO)2Fe{P(OPh)F3} (2). Similar phosphite complexes [Cp(CO)Fe{P(OPh)3}2]PF6 and also reacted with F- to form Cp(CO){P(OPh)3}Fe(PF4) (3) and (4), respectively. The 31P and 19F NMR studies of these metallafluorophosphoranes revealed that pseudorotation around the hypervalent phosphorus center takes place readily in 1 and 3, whereas it marginally occurs at room temperature in 4, but not in 2 even at elevated temperature. The difference in the energy barrier of the rotation process was interpreted in terms of the apicophilicity of the substituents on the phosphorane phosphorus.
