Iron(II) complexes of ditopic carbanionic carbenes.

Reaction of dimesityliron(II) (Fe2(mes)4) with the N-heterocyclic carbenes 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr) and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)hexahydropyrimidin-2-ylidene (6-Xyl) afforded the novel trigonal planar complexes [Fe(IPr)(mes)2] (1) and [Fe(6-Xyl)(mes)2] (2), respectiv...
