Abstract
A series of 6 cyclopentadienyl phosphanyl-pyridine piano-stool iron complexes was prepared in good yields, characterized, and studied in the catalytic reductive amination of benzaldehyde derivatives through hydrosilylation reactions by using polymethylhydrosiloxane as the hydrosilane source and in dimethylcarbonate as the solvent at 40 °C. Single-crystal X-ray structural analyses were performed for all the complexes.
