The tricarbonylvinyl(vinylketene)iron(o) complex 6 reacted with dimetyl maleate, dimethyl fumarate, (E)-methyl 4-oxopent-2-enoate and (E)-ethyl 4,4,4-trifluorobut-2-enoate to give decarbonylated adducts 7-10 respectively.An X-ray crystal structure analysis of the adduct 7, formed from the complex 6, and dimethyl maleate, and a mechanistic explanation for the adducts are presented.Oxidation of the adducts 7-10 using (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6 gave a range of organic products including the tetrasubstituted cyclopropanes 20 and 23-25, the cyclobutane-1,2-dione 22, the trisubstituted lactone 21 and the α,β-unsaturated ketone 26.
