complexes [LFe (tol)](tol= toluene; L= L1 (1 a), L2 (1 b), L3 (1 c)) with different combinations
of aromatic and backbone substituents at the ligand. The products [(LFe) 4 (μ4‐η2: η2: η2:
η2‐P8)](L= L1 (2 a), L2 (2 b)) containing a P8 core were obtained by the reaction of 1 a, b
with P4 in toluene at room temperature. Using a slightly more sterically encumbered ligand
in 1 c results in the formation of [(L3Fe) 2 (μ‐η4: η4‐P4)](2 c), possessing a cyclo‐P4 moiety …
