The thermal reaction between [CpFe(CO)2]2 and 1-tert-butyl-3,4-dimethylphosphole leading to phosphaferrocene has been studied with respect to its mechanistic characteristics. Isobutene was identified as the only product originating from the tBu group, suggesting a nonradical pathway which involves β-H elimination from the intermediately formed [CpFe(CO)2-tBu].
