A series of iron-olefin complexes of the type [CpFe(CO)2 (η2-CH2=CHR)]+ (R=CH3 to n-C14H29) have been prepared using various synthesis methods. In addition, the complexes [Cp*Fe(CO)2(η2-CH2= CHR)]+ (Cp=η5-C5 (CH3)5; R=CH3, n-C3 H7 and n-C14H29) and [CpRu(CO) 2(η2-CH2=CHR)]+ (R=CH3, n-C3H7 and n-C14 H29) have been synthesized by reacting the iron-alkyl complexes Cp*Fe(CO)2(CH2CH2R) or ruthenium-alkyl complexes CpRu(CO)2(CH2CH 2R) with Ph3CPF6. A number of these complexes are new and have been fully characterized by analytical and spectroscopic methods. The reaction of [CpFe(CO)2 (η2-CH2=CHR)]+ with the isopropoxide ion gave the new ether derivatives [CpFe(CO)2 (CH2CH{OCH(CH3)2}R)] (R=CH3, n-C2H5, n-C4H9 and n-C13H27).
