The subsite-differentiated cluster [Fe4S4(LS3)Cl]2- (1, LS3 = 1,3,5-tris((4,6-dimethyl-3-mercaptophenyl)thio)-2,4,6-tris(p-tolylthio)benzene(3-)) in Me2SO solution reacts with a variety of bidentate and tridentate ligands to afford the substituted clusters [Fe4S4(LS3)L'']z-. Some ten clusters of this type were prepared in order to examine the effects of cluster charge and coordination number at the unique subsite on relative stabilities of oxidation states and charge distributions as sensed by 57Fe isomer shifts. This is the first comprehensive study of such effects with Fe4S4 clusters. Clusters prepared include those with L'' = PhS- (4), Me2NCS2- (5), pyridine-2-thiolate (6), 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (8), hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)borate (9), and 1,2-disubstituted benzenes such as benzene-1,2-dithiolate (11). Cluster formation is detected by H NMR isotropic shifts of the LS3 ligand, which are highly sensitive to L''. A tabulation of shifts is presented. All clusters have effective trigonal symmetry in solution. Among the more significant properties of the substituted clusters are the following: (i) chemically reversible [Fe4S4]3+/2+ redox couples at potentials ca. 300-700 mV more negative than that of reference cluster 4; (ii) negative shifts of the potentials of the [Fe4S4]3+/2+ and [Fe4S4]2+/3+ couples on mononegative cluster 8 vs 1 and 4; and (iii) skewing of electron distribution at the unique subsites toward "ferric-like" (5,6,11) and "ferrous-like" (8, 9) character vs symmetrically delocalized 4. Other matters considered include the source of stability of certain substituted clusters and the effects of cluster charge and core charge density on redox potentials. The data presented approximate the intrinsic effects of various potential ligand sets at a single subsite in native clusters. The possible biological implications of this work are illustrated with the P-clusters of nitrogenase, whose terminal ligation may depart from that of the now-classical native clusters Fe4S4(S.cntdot.Cys)4.
