Novel straightforward access to a 2,2′-bipyridine ligand bearing two (η2-dppe)(η5-C5Me 5)FeC≡C- redox-active substituents by homocoupling of mononuclear organoiron(II) 2-bromopyridyl synthons

We report in this contribution the synthesis and characterization of the two organoiron(II) (η2-dppe)(η5-C 5Me5)FeC≡C-(5,2-C5H3N-X) compounds (X = Cl, 6a; X -Br, 6b) bearing a pendant halogenated m-pyridyl group. These new functional metallo-ligands allow for an original, convenient, and rapid synthetic access to the 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) ligand (3) bearing two redox-active (η2- dppe(η5-C5Me5)FeC≡ C- organometallic moieties grafted to the 5,5′-positions of bipy via a Pd-catalyzed homocoupling procedure.
