Abstract

The new C10H12Pt(μ3-S)2Fe 2(CO)6 cluster was prepared by transmetallalion of (μ3-S)2Fe3(CO)9 with C10H12PtCl2, and its structure was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The platinum atom has a planar-square coordination formed by the π-coordinated double bonds of the dicyclopentadiene ligand and two μ3-bridging sulfur atoms. Two Fe(CO)3 fragments are linked through the Fe-Fe bond (2.515 Å). In addition, one iron atom is involved in the Fe-Pt bonding (3.03 Å). As a result, the plane of the ligand environment of the platinum atom is inclined toward this iron atom. The role of steric effects, of ligand-ligand repulsions in the manifestation of the iron-platinum interaction is discussed.
