The synthesis and structure of the first Mo/Fe/S/BH(4) cluster is reported. Reaction of (Cl(4)-cat)(2)Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)(PPr(3))(6) with 4 equiv of Bu(4)NBH(4) results in the formation of [(Cl(4)-cat)(PPr(3))MoFe(3)S(4)(BH(4))(2)](2)(Bu(4)N)(4) (Cl(4)-cat = tetrachloro-catecholate) which has been fully characterized. X-ray structural determination of this double-fused cubane reveals four BH(4)(-) ligands bound to four Fe atoms in a bidentate fashion. A synopsis of the solution characterization as well as the reactivity of this cluster is also presented. 相似文献

The reactions of the (Et(4)N)(2)[(Cl(4)-cat)(MeCN)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)] (I) cluster with Fe(pp)(2)Cl(2) (pp = depe (bis(1,2-diethylphosphino)ethane) or dmpe (bis(1,2-dimethylphosphino)ethane)) produced the [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(pp)(2)Cl](2)(mu-pp) (pp = depe (III) or dmpe (V)) singly bridged double cubanes. The reactions of I with the same bidentate phosphine ligands in the presence of NaBPh(4) also produced III and the [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(dmpe)(2)](2)(mu-S)(mu-dmpe) (VI) doubly bridged double cubane, respectively. The byproduct (BPh(4))[Fe(dmpe)(2)(MeCN)Cl] (VII) has been isolated from the reaction mixture and crystallographically characterized. The depe analogue of VI, [(Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(4)(depe)(2)](2)(mu-S)(mu-depe) (IV), has been successfully prepared from III in the presence of excess Li(2)S. Similar reactions with (Et(4)N)(2)[Fe(4)S(4)(SPh)(4)] (VIII) have resulted in the formation of the neutral Fe(4)S(4)(depe)(2)(SPh)(2) (IX) cluster. The chloride analogue of IX, Fe(4)S(4)(depe)(2)Cl(2) (XI), has been obtained by a reaction of IX with benzoyl chloride. The crystal and molecular structures of III, VI, VII, and XI have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The electrochemical and spectroscopic properties, including the Mossbauer spectra of the new clusters, have been determined and analyzed. 相似文献

A new class of Mo/Fe/S clusters with the MoFe(3)S(3) core has been synthesized in attempts to model the FeMo-cofactor in nitrogenase. These clusters are obtained in reactions of the (Cl(4)-cat)(2)Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)(PR(3))(6) [R = Et (I), (n)Pr (II)] clusters with CO. The new clusters include those preliminarily reported: (Cl(4)-cat)MoFe(3)S(3)(PEt(3))(2)(CO)(6) (III), (Cl(4)-cat)(O)MoFe(3)S(3)(PEt(3))(3)(CO)(5) (IV), (Cl(4)-cat)(Pyr)MoFe(3)S(3)(PEt(3))(2)(CO)(6) (VI), and (Cl(4)-cat)(Pyr)MoFe(3)S(3)(P(n)Pr(3))(3)(CO)(4) (VIII). In addition the new (Cl(4)-cat)(O)MoFe(3)S(3)(P(n)Pr(3))(3)(CO)(5) cluster (IVa), the (Cl(4)-cat)(O)MoFe(3)S(3)(PEt(3))(2)(CO)(6)cluster (V), the (Cl(4)-cat)(O)MoFe(3)S(3)(P(n)Pr(3))(2)(CO)(6) cluster (Va), the (Cl(4)-cat)(Pyr)MoFe(3)S(3)(P(n)Pr(3))(2)(CO)(6) cluster (VIa), and the (Cl(4)-cat)(P(n)Pr(3))MoFe(3)S(3)(P(n)Pr(3))(2)(CO)(6) cluster (VII) also are reported. Clusters III-VIII have been structurally and spectroscopically characterized. EPR, zero-field (57)Fe-M?ssbauer spectroscopic characterizations, and magnetic susceptibility measurements have been used for a tentative assignment of the electronic and oxidation states of the MoFe(3)S(3) sulfur-voided cuboidal clusters. A structural comparison of the clusters with the MoFe(3)S(3) subunit of the FeMo-cofactor has led to the suggestion that the storage of reducing equivalents into M-M bonds, and their use in the reduction of substrates, may occur with the FeMo-cofactor, which also appears to have M-M bonding. On the basis of this argument, a possible N(2)-binding and reduction mechanism on the FeMoco-cofactor is proposed. 相似文献

Members of the cluster set [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8L4]z contain the core unit M2Fe6(mu3-S)6(mu4-S)2 in which two MoFe3S4 cubanes are coupled by two Fe-(mu4-S) interactions to form a centrosymmetric edge-bridged double cubane cluster. Some of these clusters are synthetic precursors to [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9L2]3-, which possess the same core topology as the P(N) cluster of nitrogenase. In this work, the existence of a three-member electron-transfer series of single cubanes [(Tp)MoFe3S4L3](z) (z = 3-, 2-, 1-) and a four-member series of double cubanes [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8L4]z (z = 4-, 3-, 2-, 1-) with L = F-, Cl-, N3, PhS- is demonstrated by electrochemical methods, cluster synthesis, and X-ray structure determinations. The potential of the [4-/3-] couple is extremely low (<-1.5 V vs SCE in acetonitrile) such that the 4- state cannot be maintained in solution under normal anaerobic conditions. The chloride double cubane redox series was examined in detail. The members [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8Cl4]4-,3-,2- were isolated and structurally characterized. The redox series includes the reversible steps [4-/3-] and [3-/2-]. Under oxidizing conditions, [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8Cl4]2- cleaves with the formation of single cubane [(Tp)MoFe3S4Cl3]1-. The quasireversible [2-/1-] couple is observed at more positive potentials than those of the single cubane redox step. Structure comparison of nine double cubanes suggests that significant dimensional changes pursuant to redox reactions are mainly confined to the Fe2(mu4-S)2 bridge rhomb. The synthesis and structure of [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9F2.H2O]3-, a new topological analogue of the P(N) cluster of nitrogenase, is described. (Tp = hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate(1-)). 相似文献

Treatment of oxidized clusters [(Cl4cat)(MeCN)MoFe3S4Cl3]2- (1) and [(Meida)MoFe3S4Cl3]2- (2) with tertiary phosphines in the presence of NaBPh4 in acetonitrile results in chloride substitution at the iron sites and the formation of clusters with the reduced [MoFe3S4]2+ core. Thus, 1 is a precursor to [(Cl4cat)(MeCN)MoFe3S4(PR3)3] (R = But (3), Pri (4)) and [(Cl4cat)2(Et3P)2Mo2Fe6S8(PEt3)4] (5). Cluster 2 affords [[(Meida)MoFe3S4(PCy3)3]4Fe2(mu-Cl)L2]3+ (L = THF (6), MeCN (7)). The structures of 3-7 were established by X-ray analysis. Clusters 3 and 4 are single cubanes, centrosymmetric 5 (previously reported in a different space group: Demadis, K. D.; Campana, C. F.; Coucouvanis, D. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 7832) is a double cubane with a rhomboidal Fe2S2 bridge, and 6 and 7 are tetracubanes. In the latter, four Meida oxygen atoms from different cubanes bind each of two central high-spin Fe(II) atoms in trans-Fe(mu-Cl)LO4 coordination. The topology of these clusters is not precedented. Zero-field M?ssbauer parameters for all clusters are reported. Isomer shift considerations suggest the formulation [Mo3+Fe2+2Fe3+S4] for reduced clusters. Voltammetry of 3 and 4 reveals four-member electron transfer series encompassing the oxidation levels [MoFe3S4]4+,3+,2+,+ in the potential interval + 1.0 to -1.3 V vs SCE in dichloromethane. Compared to the clusters with monoanionic ligands at the iron sites, phosphine ligation shifts redox potentials to more positive values. This effect arises from reduction of cluster negative charge and the tendency of phosphines to stabilize lower oxidation states. The synthesis of reduced clusters 4 from 1 and of [Fe4S4(PPri3)4]+ from [Fe4S4Cl4]2- is accompanied by the formation of Pri3PS, detected by 31P NMR, indicating that the phosphine is the reductant. This result implies a similar function of tertiary phosphines in the synthesis of 3 and 5-7. (Cl4cat = tetrachlorocatecholate(2-); Meida = N-methyliminodiacetate(2-).) 相似文献

New organometallic clusters with the MFe2(mu3-S)2 core (M = Mo or Fe) have been synthesized from inorganic [MoFe3S4] or [Fe4S4] clusters under high pressure CO. The reaction of (Cl4-cat)2Mo2Fe6S8(PR3)6[R = Et, (n)Pr] with high pressure CO produced the crystalline [MoFe2S2]4+ clusters, (Cl4-cat)Mo(O)Fe2S2(CO)(n)(PR3)6-n[n= 4, Et =I, (n)Pr =II; n = 5, Et =III] after flash column chromatography. The similar [MoFe2S2]4+ cluster, (Cl4-cat)2MoFe2S2(CO)2(depe)(2)(IV), also has been achieved by the reactions of (Cl4-cat)MoFe3S3(CO)6(PEt3)2 with depe by reductive decoupling of the cluster. For the [Fe3(mu3-S)2]4+ cluster, [Fe4S4(PcHex3)4](BPh4) was reacted with high pressure CO to produce a new Fe3S2(CO)7(PcHex)(2)(V) compound. These reactions generalized the preparation of organometallic compounds from inorganic clusters. All the compounds have been characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. A possible reaction pathway for the synthesis of the MFe2(mu3-S) clusters (M = Mo or Fe) has also been suggested. 相似文献

The catalytic function of the previously synthesized and characterized [(L)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)](2)(-)(,3)(-) clusters (L = tetrachlorocatecholate, citrate, citramalate, methyliminodiacetate, nitrilotriacetate, thiodiglycolate) and of the [MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)(thiolactate)](2)(4)(-) and [(MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(4))(2)(&mgr;-oxalate)](4)(-) clusters in the reduction of N(2)H(4) to NH(3) is reported. In the catalytic reduction, which is carried out at ambient temperature and pressure, cobaltocene and 2,6-lutidinium chloride are supplied externally as electron and proton sources, respectively. In experiments where the N(2)H(4) to the [(L)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)](n)()(-) catalyst ratio is 100:1, and over a period of 30 min, the reduction proceeds to 92% completion for L = citrate, 66% completion for L = citramalate, and 34% completion for L = tetrachlorocatecholate. The [Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)](2)(-) cluster is totally inactive and gives only background ammonia measurements. Inhibition studies with PEt(3) and CO as inhibitors show a dramatic decrease in the catalytic efficiency. These results are consistent with results obtained previously in our laboratory and strongly suggest that N(2)H(4) activation and reduction occur at the Mo site of the [(L)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)](2)(-)(, 3)(-) clusters. A possible pathway for the N(2)H(4) reduction on a single metal site (Mo) and a possible role for the carboxylate ligand are proposed. The possibility that the Mo-bound polycarboxylate ligand acts as a proton delivery "shuttle" during hydrazine reduction is considered. 相似文献

The structures of the P cluster and cofactor cluster of nitrogenase are well-defined crystallographically. They have been obtained only by biosynthesis; their chemical synthesis remains a challenge. Synthetic routes are sought to the P cluster in the P(N) state in which two cuboidal Fe(3)S(3) units are connected by a mu(6)-S atom and two Fe-(mu(2)-S(Cys))-Fe bridges. A reaction scheme affording a Mo(2)Fe(6)S(9) cluster in molecular form having the topology of the P(N) cluster has been devised. Reaction of the single cubane [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)Cl(3)](1)(-) with PEt(3) gives [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(PEt(3))(3)](1+) (2), which upon reduction with BH(4)(-) affords the edge-bridged all-ferrous double cubane [(Tp)(2)Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)(PEt(3))(4)] (4) (Tp = tris(pyrazolylhydroborate(1-)). Treatment of 4 with 3 equiv of HS(-) produces [(Tp)(2)Mo(2)Fe(6)S(9)(SH)(2)](3)(-) (7) as the Et(4)N(+) salt in 86% yield. The structure of 7 is built of two (Tp)MoFe(3)(mu(3)-S)(3) cuboidal fragments bridged by two mu(2)-S atoms and one mu(6)-S atom in an arrangement of idealized C(2) symmetry. The cluster undergoes three one-electron oxidation reactions and is oxidatively cleaved by p-tolylthiol to [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(S-p-tol)(3)](2)(-) and by weak acids to [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(SH)(3)](2-). The cluster core of 7 has the bridging pattern [Mo(2)Fe(6)(mu(2)-S)(2)(mu(3)-S)(6)(mu(6)-S)](1+) with the probable charge distribution [Mo(3+)(2)Fe(2+)(5)Fe(3+)S(9)](1+). Cluster 7 is a topological analogue of the P(N) cluster but differs in having two heteroatoms and two Fe-(mu(2)-S)-Fe instead of two Fe-(mu(2)-S(Cys))-Fe bridges. A best-fit superposition of the two cluster cores affords a weighted rms deviation in atom positions of 0.38 A. Cluster 7 is the first molecular topological analogue of the P(N) cluster. This structure had been prepared previously only as a fragment of complex high-nuclearity Mo-Fe-S clusters. 相似文献

An extensive series of 3:1 site-differentiated cubane-type clusters [Fe(4)S(4)(PPr(i)(3))(3)L] (L = Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), RO(-), RS(-), RSe(-)) has been prepared in 40-80% yield by two methods: ligand substitution of [Fe(4)S(4)(PPr(i)(3))(4)](1+) in tetrahydrofuran (THF)/acetonitrile by reaction with monoanions, and reductive cleavage of ligand substrates (RSSR, RSeSeR, I(2)) by the all-ferrous clusters [Fe(8)S(8)(PPr(i)(3))(6)]/[Fe(16)S(16)(PPr(i)(3))(8)] in THF. These neutral clusters are stable and do not undergo ligand redistribution reactions involving charged species in benzene and THF solutions. X-ray structural studies confirm the cubane stereochemistry but with substantial and variable distortions of the [Fe(4)S(4)](1+) core from idealized cubic core geometry. Based on Fe-S bond lengths, seven clusters were found to have compressed tetragonal distortions (4 short and 8 long bonds), and the remaining seven display other types of distortions with different combinations of long, short, and intermediate bond lengths. These results further emphasize the facile deformabililty of this core oxidation state previously observed in [Fe(4)S(4)(SR)(4)](3-) clusters. The Fe(2.25+) mean oxidation state was demonstrated from (57)Fe isomer shifts, and the appearance of two quadrupole doublets arises from the spin-coupled |9/2,4,1/2> state. The S = 1/2 ground state was further supported by electron paramagnetic resonance spectra and magnetic susceptibility data. 相似文献

Gaseous Fe(4)S(n)(-) (n = 4-6) clusters and synthetic analogue complexes, Fe(4)S(4)L(n)(-) (L = Cl, Br, I; n = 1-4), were produced by laser vaporization of a solid Fe/S target and electrospray from solution samples, respectively, and their electronic structures were probed by photoelectron spectroscopy. Low binding energy features derived from minority-spin Fe 3d electrons were clearly distinguished from S-derived bands. We showed that the electronic structure of the simplest Fe(4)S(4)(-) cubane cluster can be described by the two-layer spin-coupling model previously developed for the [4Fe] cubane analogues. The photoelectron data revealed that each extra S atom in Fe(4)S(5)(-) and Fe(4)S(6)(-) removes two minority-spin Fe 3d electrons from the [4Fe--4S] cubane core and each halogen ligand removes one Fe 3d electron from the cubane core in the Fe(4)S(4)L(n)(-) complexes, clearly revealing a behavior of sequential oxidation of the cubane over five formal oxidation states: [4Fe--4S](-) --> [4Fe--4S](0) --> [4Fe--4S](+) --> [4Fe-4S](2+) --> [4Fe-4S](3+). The current work shows the electron-storage capability of the [4Fe--4S] cubane, contributes to the understanding of its electronic structure, and further demonstrates the robustness of the cubane as a structural unit and electron-transfer center. 相似文献

Treatment of [Et 4N] 2[(edt) 2Mo 2S 2(mu-S) 2] ( 1) (edt = ethanedithiolate) with equimolar CuBr afforded an anionic hexanuclear cluster [Et 4N] 2[(edt) 2Mo 2(mu-S) 3(mu 3-S)Cu] 2.2CH 2Cl 2 ( 2.2CH 2Cl 2). On the other hand, reactions of 1 with 2 equiv of CuBr in the presence of 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) and pyridine (Py) ligands gave rise to two neutral tetranuclear clusters [(edt) 2Mo 2O 2(mu-S) 2Cu 2(dppm) 2] ( 3) and [(edt) 2Mo 2O(mu 3-S)(mu-S) 2Cu 2(Py) 4] ( 4), respectively. The reaction of 1 with 2 equiv of CuBr followed by the addition of a mixture of dppm and Py (molar ratio = 1:2) yielded another neutral tetranuclear cluster [(edt) 2Mo 2(mu-S) 2(mu 3-S) 2Cu 2(dppm)(Py)].Py ( 5.Py). Compounds 2- 5 have been characterized by elemental analysis, UV-vis spectra, IR spectra, (1)H NMR, and X-ray analysis. The structure of the dianion of 2 can be viewed as having a [Mo 4S 8Cu 2] core in which two chemically equivalent [Mo 2(mu-S) 3(mu 3-S)(edt) 2Cu] (-) anions are linked by two extra Cu-S edt bonds. The molecular structure of 3 may be visualized as being built of one [(edt) 2Mo 2X 2(mu-S) 2] (2-) dianion and one [Cu 2(dppm) 2] (2+) dication that are connected by a pair of M-mu-S edt bonds. Compound 4 is formed by the affiliation of two Cu(I) atoms only at one end of the [(edt) 2Mo 2S 2(mu-S) 2] moiety, connecting with the S t atoms and the S edt atom. Cluster 5.Py can be viewed as being constructed from the addition of one Cu atom onto the incomplete cubanelike [Mo 2S 4Cu] framework through one terminal sulfur and one edt sulfur. Among the four clusters, 3 and 4 have internal mirror symmetry or pseudo mirror symmetry, respectively, while 2 and 5 are asymmetric clusters with racemic formation. 相似文献

The reactivity of Fe/S and Fe/Mo/S clusters, similar or analogous to those occurring in biological systems, with thiophilic metal ions has not been explored. In this Communication, we demonstrate that synthesis of heteropolynuclear clusters with different coordination geometries for different metals at different sites is possible by metal substitution or by metal addition reactions. The two clusters we report herein ([(Cl4-cat)2Mo2Cu5Fe4S9(PnPr3)7(SPnPr3)2]PF6 and [(Cl4-cat)2Mo2Cu6Fe4S10(PnPr3)8]) contain Fe, Mo, and Cu, which display pseudotetrahedral, pseudooctahedral, and pseudotrigonal geometries, respectively. The synthesis of these clusters is achieved by the addition of appropriate amounts of [Cu(CH3CN)4]+ to [(Cl4-cat)2Mo2Fe8(PnPr3)6]. The formation of the different products is temperature- and solvent-dependent. The Cu(I) units incorporated into the metal cluster framework, either bind to available lone pairs of the already bridging S ligands or displace the less thiophilic Fe atoms. Among the essential features of these new molecules are recognizable Fe/S fragments including an Fe6S9 core in the first cluster and the pentlandite Fe4Cu4S6 core in the second cluster. 相似文献

Recent work has shown that cyanide ligation increases the redox potentials of Fe(4)S(4) clusters, enabling the isolation of [Fe(4)S(4)(CN)4]4-, the first synthetic Fe(4)S(4) cluster obtained in the all-ferrous oxidation state (Scott, T. A.; Berlinguette, C. P.; Holm, R. H.; Zhou, H.-C. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2005, 102, 9741). The generality of reduced cluster stabilization has been examined with MoFe(3)S(4) clusters. Reaction of single-cubane [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(PEt(3))3]1+ and edge-bridged double-cubane [(Tp)2Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)(PEt(3))4] with cyanide in acetonitrile affords [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(CN)3]2- (2) and [(Tp)2Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)(CN)4]4- (5), respectively. Reduction of 2 with KC(14)H(10) yields [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(CN)3]3- (3). Clusters were isolated in approximately 70-90% yields as Et(4)N+ or Bu(4)N+ salts; clusters 3 and 5 contain all-ferrous cores, and 3 is the first [MoFe(3)S(4)]1+ cluster isolated in substance. The structures of 2 and 3 are very similar; the volume of the reduced cluster core is slightly larger (2.5%), a usual effect upon reduction of cubane-type Fe(4)S(4) and MFe(3)S(4) clusters. Redox potentials and 57Fe isomer shifts of [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)L3]2-,3- and [(Tp)2Mo(2)Fe(6)S(8)L(4)]4-,3- clusters with L = CN-, PhS-, halide, and PEt3 are compared. Clusters with pi-donor ligands (L = halide, PhS) exhibit larger isomer shifts and lower (more negative) redox potentials, while pi-acceptor ligands (L = CN, PEt3) induce smaller isomer shifts and higher (less-negative) redox potentials. When the potentials of 3/2 and [(Tp)MoFe(3)S(4)(SPh)3]3-/2- are compared, cyanide stabilizes 3 by 270 mV versus the reduced thiolate cluster, commensurate with the 310 mV stabilization of [Fe(4)S(4)(CN)4]4- versus [Fe(4)S(4)(SPh)4]4- where four ligands differ. These results demonstrate the efficacy of cyanide stabilization of lower cluster oxidation states. (Tp = hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate(1-)). 相似文献

Kinetic studies on the substitution reaction between [Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)](2-) and Bu(t)NC or Et(2)NCS(2)(-) are reported. The binding of small molecules and ions to Fe-S clusters is a fundamental step in substitution reactions but can be difficult to follow directly because these reactions are rapid and often associated with small spectroscopic changes. A novel kinetic method is reported which allows the time course of molecule and ion binding to Fe-S clusters to be followed by monitoring the lability of the cluster. Using a stopped-flow, sequential-mix apparatus, [Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)](2-) and L (L = Et(2)NCS(2)(-) or Bu(t)NC) are rapidly mixed, and after a known time (delta) the resulting solution is mixed with a solution of PhS(-). The thiolate substitutes for the chloro ligands on the cluster, in a reaction which is easy to follow because of the large change in the visible absorption spectrum. The rate of this substitution is extremely sensitive to whether L is bound to the cluster or not. By correlation of delta with the rate of the reaction with PhS(-), the time course of the reaction between [Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)](2-) and L can be mapped out. In studies where L = Bu(t)NC this technique has allowed the detection of an intermediate ([Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)(CNBu(t))](2-)) which cannot be detected spectrophotometrically. In further studies, the substitution reactions of [Fe(4)S(4)Cl(4)](2-) with PhS(-), Et(2)NCS(2)(-), or Bu(t)NC are all perturbed by the addition of Cl(-). In all cases a common pathway for substitution is evident, but with Et(2)NCS(2)(-) an additional, slower pathway becomes apparent under conditions where the common pathway is completely inhibited by Cl(-). 相似文献

The occurrence of a heteroatom X (C, N, or O) in the MoFe7S9X core of the iron-molybdenum cofactor of nitrogenase has encouraged synthetic attempts to prepare high-nuclearity M-Fe-S-X clusters containing such atoms. We have previously shown that reaction of the edge-bridged double cubane [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8(PEt3)4] (1) with nucleophiles HQ- affords the clusters [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S8Q(QH)2](3-) (Q = S, Se) in which HQ- is a terminal ligand and Q(2-) is a mu2-bridging atom in the core. Reactions with OH- used as such or oxygen nucleophiles generated in acetonitrile from (Bu3Sn)2O or Me3SnOH and fluoride were examined. Reaction of 1 with Et4NOH in acetonitrile/water generates [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(OH)2]3- (3), isolated as [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(OH)(OC(=NH)Me)(H2O)](3-) and shown to have the [Mo2Fe6(mu2-S)2(mu3-S)6(mu6-S)] core topology very similar to the P(N) cluster of nitrogenase. The reaction system 1/Et4NOH in acetonitrile/methanol yields the P(N)-type cluster [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(OMe)2(H2O)](3-) (5). The system 1/Me3SnOH/F- affords the oxo-bridged double P(N)-type cluster {[(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(mu2-O)]2}5- (7), convertible to the oxidized cluster {[(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(mu2-O)]2}4- (6), which is prepared independently from [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9F2(H2O)](3-)/(Bu3Sn)2O. In the preparations of 3-5 and 7, hydroxide liberates sulfide from 1 leading to the formation of P(N)-type clusters. Unlike reactions with HQ-, no oxygen atoms are integrated into the core structures of the products. However, the half-dimer composition [Mo2Fe6S9O] relates to the MoFe7S9 constitution of the putative native cluster with X = O. (Tp = hydrotris(pyrazolyl) borate(1-)). 相似文献

Density functional theory calculations were carried out on the structurally characterized [(Cl(4)-cat)Mo(py)Fe(3)S(3) (CO)(4)(P(n)Pr(3))(3)], A, and (Cl(4)-cat)Mo(py)Fe(3)S(3)(CO)(6)(PEt(3))(2), B, and also on A(2)(-) and B(2+) clusters. The Fe-Fe distances in these molecules depend on the total number of valence electrons (60 e(-) in A and B(2)(+) and 62 e(-) in A(2)(-) and B) and undergo great structural changes upon addition or removal of electrons. The changes are consistent with known electron-counting rules in organometallic chemistry. The weak nature of the Fe-Fe bonding interactions in these clusters is apparent in the very similar energies of states with widely different Fe-Fe distances. 相似文献

1 INTRODUCTION We once reported a CS bond cleavage reaction of (h5-C5Me5)Mo(StBu)3, which led to a Mo(IV) thio/thiolate complex (h5-C5Me5)MoS2(StBu)[1]. This reaction was facilitated by oxidants such as S8, gray selenium, and FeCl3[2]. The reaction with FeCl3 gave rise to a cubane cluster [(h5-C5Me5)2Mo2Fe2S4Cl2], which served as an excellent building block to construct various Mo/Fe/S clusters[2]. In this paper, we report the crystal structure of [(h5-C5Me5)2Mo2Fe… 相似文献
