Reaction of the title compound I with aryllithium reagents in ether at low temperature and subsequent alkylation of the acylmetalates formed with Et3OBF4 leads to an unusual ring-opening reaction of the bicyclodiene ligand to generate novel chelated diallyldicarbonyliron complexes II-VII. Complex V belongs to the monoclinic space group C2h6 - C2lc with a = 16.870 (4) ?, b = 13.707 (4) ?, c = 19.361 (4) ?, β = 107.92 (2)°, V = 4259 (1) ?3, and Dcalcd = 1.51 g/cm3 for Z = 8. Least-squares refinement based on 2481 observed reflections led to a final R of 0.0409 and Rw of 0.0391.
