Abstract

Carbonyl exchange of Fe3(μ3-S)2(CO)9 wioth1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) in refluxing THF gives a cluster ligand with a pendant phosphine moiety, Fe3(μ3-S)2(CO)8 (gn1-Ph2PlC5H4)Fe(C5H4)P4 MePh2)]1 −,4. Addition of 1 to AuCl(SMe2) gives ClAu(μ-dppf) Fe4(μ3-S)2(CO)8,8 (45%). Spectroscopic evidence is also obtained for (OC)8 (μ3-S)2Fe3(μ-dppf) Os3(CO)11,7 and PdCl2[(μ-dppf)Fe3(μ3-D)2(CO)8]2,9, from1 and Os3(CO)11(CH3CN) and PdCl2CN)2, respectively.
