Mass-selected heteronuclear iron-copper carbonyl cluster anions CuFe(CO)n(-) (n = 4-7) are studied by infrared photodissociation spectroscopy in the carbonyl stretching frequency region in the gas phase. The cluster anions are produced via a laser vaporization supersonic cluster ion source. Their geometric structures are determined by comparison of the experimental spectra with those calculated by density functional theory. The experimentally observed CuFe(CO)n(-) (n = 4-7) cluster anions are characterized to have (OC)4Fe-Cu(CO)n-4 structures, each involving a C3v symmetry Fe(CO)4(-) building block. Bonding analysis indicates that the Fe-Cu bond in the CuFe(CO)n(-) (n = 4-7) cluster anions is a σ type single bond with the iron center possessing the most favored 18-electron configuration. The results provide important new insight into the structure and bonding of hetronuclear transition metal carbonyl cluster anions.
