Abstract
A two-coordinate Fe(II) m-terphenyl complex acts as a precatalyst for the hydroamination of isocyanates, affording urea and biuret derivatives, with product selectivity accomplished via modification of the reaction conditions. Using a more nucleophilic amine facilitates the insertion of up to four isocyanates into the N–H bond, affording triuret and tetrauret derivatives.
