Synthesis and characterization of diiron propanedithiolate complexes with monosubstituted tris(2-furyl)phosphine or n-propyldiphenylphosphine LiHui YaoChen-Zhong ChaiXiao-Chuan WangGao-Feng LiJun WangJie WeiZhuang-Wei ZhouFu-Lin 2018 <p>Two monosubstituted diiron complexes, namely (<i>µ</i>-SCH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>S-<i>µ</i>)Fe<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>5</sub>L (L = P(2-C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>3</sub>O)<sub>3</sub>, <b>2</b>; Ph<sub>2</sub>PCH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>3</sub>, <b>3</b>), have been prepared by the carbonyl substitution of the parent complex (<i>µ</i>-SCH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>S-<i>µ</i>)Fe<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>6</sub> (<b>1</b>) with the corresponding monophosphine ligands in the presence of Me<sub>3</sub>NO·2H<sub>2</sub>O. The new complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.</p>
