(η³-1- and 2-Trimethylsiloxyallyl)Fe(CO)2NO complexes were prepared by the reaction of the corresponding siloxyallylic halides with Bu4N.These complexes reacted with both of carbon nucleophiles and carbon electrophiles preferentially at the less hindered sites of the allylic ligands.In these reactions, (η³-1-trimethylsiloxyallyl)Fe(CO)2NO complexes served as synthetically equivalent synthons for both of β-acyl carbocations and β-acyl carbanions and (η³-2-trimethylsiloxyallyl)Fe(CO)2NO complexes as both of α-acyl carbocations and α-acyl carbanions.The stereochemical courses of the reactions are described.
