ChemInform Abstract: A Cubane Cluster with the (MoFe3S4)0 Core and Its Possible Relevance Concerning the Fe3 Centers in Ferredoxins: The (Fe3S4(SEt)3Mo(CO)3)3- Ion.
Abstract
The title cluster (III), obtained from the known linear trimer (I), contains Fe in a formal oxidation state of +2.67, determined from the isomer shift in the Moessbauer spectrum.
ChemInform Abstract
The title cluster (III), obtained from the known linear trimer (I), contains Fe in a formal oxidation state of +2.67, determined from the isomer shift in the Moessbauer spectrum. This indicates the presence of Mo(0). (III) crystallizes in Pbcm with Z=4 and can be reversibly reduced or oxidized in one-electron processes.
