Phosphoraneiminato Cluster of Iron. The Crystal Structures of [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄, [Fe(C=C–SiMe₃)(NPEt₃)]₄, and [Fe₃Cl₄{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] The reaction of iron dichloride with the silylated phosphaneimine Me₃SiNPEt₃ in the presence of potassium fluoride at 165 ?C leads to the phosphoraneiminato complex [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄ ( 1 ). Compound 1 forms black, moisture and oxygen sensitive crystals. According to the crystal structure analysis 1 has a heterocubane structure, in which the iron and the nitrogen atoms of the NPEt₃^– groups occupy the corners of a distorted cube and form Fe–N–Fe bond angles of 83.1? and N–Fe–N angles of 96.5?. This results in significantly short Fe…Fe contacts of 272.9 pm. The results of magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range of temperatures from 1.8 to 293 K and the ⁵⁷Fe‐Mössbauer spectra in the range of temperatures from 2 to 300 K are reported. Compound 1 reacts with the lithiated acetylenes LiC=C–CMe₃ and LiC=C–SiMe₃ in n‐hexane to form the iron‐organic derivatives [Fe(C=C–R)(NPEt₃)]₄ [R = CMe₃ ( 2 a ), R = SiMe₃ ( 2 b )] keeping the heterocubane structure.

According to the crystal structure analysis 2 b has a Fe₄N₄ heterocubane structure which is less distorted than that in 1 with bond angles Fe–N–Fe of 85.5? and N–Fe–N of 94.2?. This leads to the longer Fe…Fe contacts of 281.4 pm.

According to the X‐ray crystal structure determination the complex has a Ni₄N₄ heterocubane core and its symmetry deviates only marginally from T_d (space group Pca2₁, Z = 4, a = 3160.7(6), b = 1001.5(1), c = 1422.6(8) pm). The [INi(NPMe₃)]₄ molecules are stacked to columns parallel to b, with a nearly tetragonal pattern in projection on (010). The solvent molecules reside in channels between the columns. A side product of the synthesis were blue single crystals of the phosphanimine complex [INi{Me₂Si(NPMe₃)₂}(HNPMe₃)]⁺I^—. The crystal structure determination (space group Pca2₁, Z = 4, a = 1213.3(4), b = 1582.7(6), c = 1339.7(4) pm) revealed a distorted tetrahedral coordination of the Ni atom in the cation; the coordinated atoms are the two N atoms of the chelating bis(phosphane)imine molecule, the N atom of the phosphaneimine molecule HNPMe₃ and one iodo ligand.
