摘要
The reaction of anhydrous FeBr2 with two equivalents of in situ generated anionic aryloxo-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene [NaO-4,6-di-C(CH3)(3)-C6H2-2-CH2{C(NCHCHNR)}] (R=CH(CH3)(2),NaL1; R=CH2Ph,NaL2) affords two bis-ligand Fe(II) complexes Fe-2(1) (1) and FeL22 (2) in good yield, respectively. Attempt to synthesize mono-ligand Fe(II) bromide by the 1:1 molar ratio of NaL to FeBr2 is unsuccessful, the same complexes of 1 and 2 were obtained. Both of 1 and 2 have been fully characterized by elemental analysis, H-1 NMR spectra and X-ray structure determination. Preliminary studies show that I can catalyze the ring-opening polymerization of c-caprolactone as a single component catalyst. The mechanism of the present ROP of epsilon-caprolactone has been investigated by the end group analysis. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
