Synthesis and crystal structure of (η5-C5H5)NiFe3(CO)7(μ-PPh2)(μ4,η2-HCCPri): a butterfly cluster with an unprecedented metal core stoichiometry

The title compound, [Cu2(C19H23N7O)(C2H3O2)4] n , was obtained via reaction of copper(II) acetate with the coordinating ligand, 6-ethoxy-N 2,N 4-bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine. The crystallized product adopts the monoclinic P21/c space group. The metal core exhibits a paddle-wheel structure typical for dicopper tetraacetate units, with triazine and pyridyl nitrogen atoms from different ligands coordinating to the two axial positions of the paddle wheel in an asymmetric manner. This forms a coordination polymer with the segments of the polymer created by the c-glide of the P21/c setting of the space group. The resulting chains running along the c-axis direction are held together by intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonding. These chains are further packed by dispersion forces, producing an extended three-dimensional structure.

The title compound,, [Fe4Ni(C3H6S2)2(C7H14S4)(CO)10]·2CH2Cl2, is reported as a biomimic model for the active site of [FeFe]-hydrogenases. Bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-1,3-propanedithio ether nickel(II) was firstly introduced into [Fe2(C3H6S2)(CO)5] as an S-containing ligand. It coordinates with two [Fe2(C3H6S2)(CO)5] groups, and a five-metal core complex is formed. The Fe2S2core is in a butterfly conformation. The Fe—Fe distances in the [Fe2(C3H6S2)(CO)5] groups are 2.5126 (6) and 2.5086 (7) Å. The distances between the adjacent Fe and Ni atoms are 3.5322 (1) and 3.5143 (1) Å. There are intramolecular C—H...O and C—H...S contacts present in the complex. In the crystal, the five metal cores are linkedviaC—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming columns lying parallel to (110). The dichloromethane solvent molecules are each partially disordered over two positions and only one is linked to the five-metal core complex by a C—H...O hydrogen bond.
