Treatment of ButPCl2 with 2 equiv. of (2,4,6-Me3C6H2)(2-LiC6H4)NLi and (2,6-Cl2C6H3)(2-LiC6H4)NLi, which were generated in situ by the interaction of (2,4,6-Me3C6H2)(2-BrC6H4)NH and (2,6-Cl2C6H3)(2-BrC6H4)NH with 2 equiv. of BunLi, followed by quenching with water, afforded new tridentate diamine-phosphine compounds (o-(N-(2,4,6-Me3C6H2)-NH)C6H4)2PBut and (o-(N-(2,6-Cl2C6H3)NH)C6H4)2PBut (denoted as H2(MesN2PBu-t) and H2(dcpN2PBu-t)), respectively. H2(MesN2PBu-t) and H2(dcpN2PBu-t) underwent amine-elimination reaction with[Fe(N(SiMe3)2)2]2 (0.5 equiv.) to afford iron(Ⅱ) complexes[(κ3-N,N,P-MesN2PBu-t)Fe(OEt2)] (1) and[(κ3-N,N,P-dcpN2PBu-t)Fe(OEt2)] (2) bearing tridentate diamido-phosphine ligands. Treatment of 1 with organic diazo compounds (p-tolyl)2CN2 and PhC(N2)CO2Et rendered the formation of diazo coordinated iron complexes[(κ3-N,N,P-MesN2PBu-t)Fe(η2-N,N-(p-tolyl)2CN2)] (3) and[(κ3-N,N,P-MesN2PBu-t)Fe(κ2-N,O-PhC(N2)- CO2Et)] (4), respectively. Complex 2 can catalyze the conversion of (p-tolyl)2CN2 to (p-tolyl)2C=NN=C(tolyl-p)2. Treatment of 2 with organic diazo compound DmpC(N2)H rendered the formation of a high-spin iron(Ⅱ) complex featuring the tridentate bisamido-phosphine ylide ligand[(κ3-N,N,C-dcpN2PBu-tCH,Dmp)Fe] (5). These complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, solution magnetic susceptibility measurements, zero-field 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The spectroscopic data in combination with theoretical study suggest that complex 3 can be viewed as a low-spin iron(IV) imido complex featuring an dianionic ligand[η2-N,N-(p-tolyl)2CN2]2-, whereas 4 has an intermediate-spin iron(Ⅲ) center that is antiferromagnetically coupled to a diazoalkane radical anion[κ2-N,O-PhC(N2)-CO2Et)]•1-.
