The complexes (η3-RC3H4)Fe(CO)(NO)(C6H 5)2PN(R′)CH(CH3)(C6H 5) (R, R′ = H, CH3), 1-4, were synthesized by reaction of (η3-RC3H4)Fe(CO)2NO with the corresponding (S)-ammophosphine. Two diastereoisomers, b (AS) and a (SS), differing only in the Fe configuration, were formed that could be separated by fractional crystallization and preparative liquid chromatography. The compounds are configurationally stable at the Fe atom up to 120°C. The absolute configurations of diastereomers 1a and 2b have been determined by X-ray analysis. The conformations of a series of aminophosphine complexes are compared.
