Preparation of phosphinoferrocene carboxamides from isocyanates. Synthesis and structural characterisation of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes with 1'-(diphenylphosphino)-1-(N-phenylcarbamoyl)ferrocene

Abstract

Alternative route to phosphinoferrocene carboxamides was developed, based on the reaction of lithioferrocenes with isocyanates. 1'-(Diphenylphosphino)-1-(N-phenylcarbamoyl)ferrocene as a representative was studied as a ligand for palladium and platinum complexes.
