Abstract

The arsenic-bridged bimetallic compounds (CO)₄FeAs(CH₃)₂M (M = Mn(CO)₄, 1 ; M = Co(CO)₃, 2 ; M = Mo(C₅H₅)(CO)₂, 3) were investigated as possible CO and alkene hydrogenation catalysts. Heating these compounds under H₂ did not lead to any observable metal dihydride species but gave thermal decomposition. Thermal stabilities were found to be in the order 3 > 1 > 2. 1 and 3 reacted with CO at 45 °C and 110 °C, respectively, to give compounds 5 and 6 in which the metal/3-metal bond has been cleaved and CO added. Heating 1, 2, or 3 under CO and H₂ gave no observable CH₃OH or CH₄. Evidence that metal hydride species might be in equilibrium with 1, 2, or 3 was obtained from the observation that solutions of 1, 2, or 3 which are heated under H₂ catalyze the hydrogenation of 1-octene to n-octane and the isomerization of 1-octene to cis- and trans-2-octene.
