Abstract

The title compound, [Fe2(C15H12N2S3)(CO)6], was prepared as an aza­dithiol­atodiiron model for the active site of [FeFe]-hydrogenase. The Fe2S2 core adopts a butterfly shape, with each metal having a pseudo square-pyramidal geometry. The N-substituted aza­dithiol­ate is μ2-κ4 S,S′:S,S′-coordinated to the Fe(CO)3 moieties to form two fused six-membered rings with different conformations. The sum of the C—N—C angles around the N atom [356.85 (15)°] indicates a flattening of the trigonal–pyramidal geometry about the N atom and an increase in the degree of sp 2-hybridization.

Highlights

  • Supplementary data and figures for this paper are available from the IUCr electronic archives (Reference: MW2048)

  • R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-factors based on ALL data will be even larger
