Potassium iron carbonylate, KHFe(CO)4, reacted with ethyl acrylate, crotonate, 3-butenoate, styrene, and α-olefins at 40–70°C under an atmosphere of carbon monoxide. Methylmalonate was selectively obtained from the acrylate by treatment of the reaction mixture with an alcoholic iodine and hydrogen chloride solutions. Dipotassium iron carbonylate, K2Fe(CO)4, reacted with β-bromopropionate to give mainly methylmalonate. Isomerization of β-ethoxycarbonylpropionyliron carbonylate to the α-isomer occurred readily in contrast to isomerization of acylcobalt carbonyl. Both crotonate and 3-butenoate gave ethylmalonate as a major product and methylsuccinate and glutarate as minor ones. The results suggest that α-ethoxycarbonylbutyliron carbonylate is more predominant than the corresponding β- and γ-isomers in equilibrium state. This is in striking contrast to the case of acylcobalt carbonyl. Styrene yielded two isomeric aldehydes, α- and β-phenylpropionaldehydes. Ethyl caproate and enanthate were obtained from 1-pentene and 1-hexene, respectively in poor yield.
