On the basis of preparation of the known complex [Fe 2 (μ-SCH 2 ) 2 S(CO) 6 ] (A) by a new method involving condensation of [(μ-LiS) 2 Fe 2 (CO) 6 ] with excess S(CH 2 Br) 2 , twelve new diiron thiadithiolates as mimics of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase active site have been synthesized by substitution of the CO ligand and coordination at the central S atom of complex A with appropriate reagents. Treatment of A with 1 equiv. of the monodentate ligands PPh 3 and [(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )(η 5 -Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 )-Fe] in the presence of Me 3 NO and with 1 equiv. tBuNC and cyclohexyl isocyanide gave the single [2Fe3S]-cluster-containing monosubstituted complexes [Fe 2 (p-SCH 2 ) 2 S(CO) 5 -(L 1 )] (1, L 1 = PPh 3 ; 2, L 1 = (η 5 -C 5 H 5 )(η 5 -Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 )Fe; 3, L 1 = tBuNC; 4, L 1 = C 6 H 11 NC), whereas the double [2Fe3S]-cluster-containing disubstituted complexes [(Fe 2 (μ-SCH 2 ) 2 S-(CO) 5 } 2 (L 2 )] [5, L 2 = 4,4'-(Ph 2 P) 2 (C 6 H 4 ) 2 ; 6, L 2 = trans-Ph 2 P-CH=CHPPh 2 ; 7, L 2 = 1,4-(CN) 2 C 6 H 4 ; 8, L 2 = (η 5 -Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 ) 2 -Fe ; 9, L 2 = (η 5 -Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 ) 2 Ru] were produced by reaction of A with 0.5 equiv. of the corresponding bidentate ligands in the presence of Me 3 NO. In addition, the single [2Fe3S]-cluster-containing complexes in which the central S atom is coordinated, [{Fe 2 (μ-SCH 2 ) 2 S(CO) 6 }{(η 5 -MeC 5 H 4 )(CO) 2 Fe}(BF4)] (10), [(Fe 2 (μ-SCH 2 ) 2 S(CO) 6 }(Cr(CO) 5 }] (11), and [{Fe 2 (μ-SCH 2 ) 2 S(CO) 6 }[W(CO) 5 }] (12), could be obtained by reaction of complex A with the in situ prepared [{(η 5 -MeC 5 H 4 )(CO) 2 -Fe}(BF 4 )], [Cr(CO) 5 (thf)], and [W(CO) 5 (thf)], respectively. While complex 3 was found to be able to reduce the proton of the weak acid Et 3 NHCl to give H 2 , the X-ray crystallographic study confirmed that (i) each P atom of the phosphane ligands in 1 and 8 occupies an apical position at the Fe atoms, (ii) the isocyanide ligand in 3 lies in a basal position of the Fe atom, and (iii) the (η 5 -MeC 5 H 4 )(CO) 2 Fe, Cr(CO) 5 , and W(CO) 5 units in 10-12 are linked to the central S atom of complex A by an equatorial bond from the two fused six-membered rings of their [2Fe3S]-cluster cores.
