| Abstract
| The phosphino and (thio)phosphoryl formamides la, b, 2a-c, 3a, b, 4a, b which were partially unknown are synthesized by various methods, and their reactions with carbonyl-metal halides of manganese and iron are described. The formation of the P,N-and S,N-coordinate chelate complexes, (CO)4MnL (5 a, 8a), is limited to the N-phenyl derivatives la and 4a. With L = 2a, b, the unidentate P-coordination predominates. Thus, the carbonylmetal halide complexes cis-(CO)4Mn(X)L (6a, b: X = CI, 7a, b: X = Br) and 7? 5 -C5H5(CO)Fe(X)L (9a, b: X = I, 10a, b: X = Br) are obtained. Due to the low stability of the formamide complexes, their formation is always accompanied by isocyanate elimi-nation as a side-reaction. | |
