Abstract:The reactivity of complexes [Fe2(µ‐S2)(CO)4L2] (L = CO (1), PPh3 (2)), with lithium alkynylide reagents generated in situ, was investigated. The behavior of the S2‐bridge in these compounds depends on the substitution at the diiron core. The reaction with the hexacarbonyl derivative 1 leads to the formation of the 1,2‐dithiolene bridged complex [Fe2(µ‐SCH=C(R)S)(CO)6] (3R) while the molecule [Fe2(µ‐SH)(µ‐SC≡CR)(CO)4(PPh3)2] (5R), with an open butterfly structure, is isolated when reacting the disubstituted der… Show more
