abstract = "Tricarbonyl(cyclo-octatetraene)iron undergoes a rapid photochemical conversion into pentacarbonyl (cyclo-octatetraene)di-iron and cyclo-octatetraene in high yield; hexacarbonyl(cyclo-octatetraene)di-iron is also rapidly photochemically converted into pentacarbonyl(cyclo-octatetraene)di-iron.",

note = "Funding Information: This implies that the iron(0) of another molecule of [(cot)- Fe(CO),] is far more nucleophilic toward the unsaturated species in an intermolecular fashion than are either of the non-co-ordinated double bonds of (cot) Fe(CO),, intva-molecularly. This work was supported in part by a grant from the Petroleum Research Fund administered by the American noteworthy in that, when [(cot)Fe(CO),] is irradiated, no Chemical Society. appreciable amount of (3), the least sterically hindered binuclear (cot) complex, is produced. Apparently, (3)is not (Received, 10th April 1972; Corn. 596.) 2 Unless the reaction mixture was cooled in a bath, the solvent was heated to reflux by the heat of the 460 W Hanovia lamp. § The solution was saturated with (2) after irradiation for only 8 min. 1 T.A.
