Abstract
The title complex, dicarbonyl-3κ2 C-(μ3-3,6-dimethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolato-1:2:3κ7 S:S,N,N′,S′:S,S′)(μ2-3,6-dimethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolato-1:2κ5 S,N,N′,S′:S)-1,2-diiron(II)-3-nickel(0) [Fe2Ni(C8H18N2S2)2(CO)2], is the second example showing M(μ-SR)2Ni0(CO)2 coordination (M = any metal atom). Both FeII ions are five-coordinated in distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometries by two N atoms and three S atoms. The Ni atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by two S atoms and two carbonyl ligands. One of the 3,6-dimethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolate ligands is disordered, the major component having a refined occupancy of 0.873 (2). The Fe⋯Fe distance is 3.0945 (3)Å and the Ni⋯Fe distance is 2.8505 (3) Å.

Comment
We studied the reaction between [NiII(dsdm)] (Turner et al., 1990) and (Et4N)[FeII(CN)2(CO)3I] (Jiang et al., 2009) in methanol solution in an attempt to synthesize a dithiolate bridged Ni-Fe complex [NiII(dsdm)FeII(CN)2(CO)2] to mimic the active site structure of Ni-Fe hydrogenase (Fontecilla-Camps et al., 2007), However, an insoluble material was obtained. Solid state infrared spectroscopy of the material has shown the presence of both CO and CN ligands. This material was then treated with LiHBEt3 in THF to give a black-colored solution. Surprisingly, [FeII(dsdm)]2Ni0(CO)2] (Fig. 1) was isolated upon diffusion of diethyl ether to the black colored solution.
Reshuffling of ligands on [NiII(dsdm)] is not unprecedented. Bouwman has shown that a tetranuclear complex [FeII(dsdm)Ni0(CO)3]2 is isolated by the reaction between [NiII(dsdm)] and K[HFe0(CO)4] in refluxing ethanol (Bouwman et al., 1999). Nickel is reduced by the low oxidation iron species in solution. In our system, a similar reshuffling occured, and nickel was reduced by hydride in THF solution.
This molecule crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with one molecule per asymmetric unit. Part of the molecule is disordered. This disorder can be described as an approximate mirror operation about a plane along N4, N3, S4 and Fe2. The ratio between the two components of this disorder was refined freely, and converged at 0.873 (2). Bond lengths and angles between atoms of the major components of the disorders are determined with significantly higher accuracy than for those between the corresponding atoms of the minor components.
Nevertheless, the structure of [FeII(dsdm)]2Ni0(CO)2] shows several interesting features. It is only the second example of a M(µ-SR)2Ni(CO)2 coordination other than (Et4N)2[NiII(S2N2')Ni0(CO)2] (S2N2' = µ2-4,7-diazadecane-3,8-dione-1,10-dithiolato-N,N',S,S,S',S') made by Rauchfuss (Linck et al., 2003).
The trinuclear Fe-Fe-Ni complex is not symmetric. The Ni(CO)2 unit is bridged by two sulfur atoms from one [FeII(dsdm)] unit. One such sulfur atom forms an additional bond to the adjacent iron. All four sulfur atoms in this molecule are different in their metal-coordination nature. S3 only coordinates to Fe2; S4 bridges between Fe1 and Fe2; S1 bridges between Fe1 and Ni3; S2 bridges among Fe1, Fe2 and Ni3. Even though both [FeII(dsdm)] units are distorted trigonal bipyramidal, their geometries are significantly different. The structure of the non-Ni bridging [Fe(dsdm)] unit is similar to the tetramer, [FeII(dsdm)Ni0(CO)3]2, reported (Bouwman et al., 1999) and the parent [FeII(dsdm)]2 dimer reported by Lippard (Hu and Lippard, 1974). In the non-Ni-bridging [FeII(dsdm)] unit, the axial bonds are much longer than the equatorial bonds, i.e., Fe2-N3 (2.381 (2)Å) > Fe2-N4 (2.160 (2)Å), and Fe2-S4 (2.4511 (4)Å) > Fe2-S3 (2.3122 (4)Å) and Fe2-S2 (2.3919 (4)Å). However, the Ni-bridging [Fe(dsdm)] shows more distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Significantly, the difference between the axial Fe1-N1 (2.241 (2)Å) and the equatorial Fe1-N2 (2.204 (2)Å) is not as substantial.
The Fe-Fe distance is 3.0945 (3)Å, which is similar to that in the tetranuclear FeII(dsdm)Ni0(CO)3]2 and shorter than that in the [FeII(dsdm)]2 dimer. The Ni-Fe distance is 2.8505 (3)Å, which is similar to the Ni-Ni distance in (Et4N)2[Ni(S2N2')Ni(CO)2].
Experimental
Anhydrous methanol, THF, diethyl ether and LiHBEt3 (1M solution in THF) was purchased from Acros. [NiII(dsdm)] and (Et4N)[FeII(CN)2(CO)3I] were prepared according to published procedure (Turner et al., 1990, Jiang et al., 2009)
To 0.265 g (1.0 mmol) [NiII(dsdm)] dissolved in 10 ml methanol, a solution of 0.449 g (1.00 mmol) [Et4N][FeII(CN)2(CO)3I] in 5 ml methanol was added. The reaction mixture was kept stirring for 2 h and a brown-colored precipitate formed. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with 5 ml methanol 3 times and dried under vacuum to afford 0.300 g light-brown colored powder (IR (ATR): 1983, 2036, 2110 cm-1). The identity of this brown powder has not been determined. 0.400 ml LiHBEt3 (1M in THF) was added to 0.086 g of this brown powder suspended in 2 ml THF, and the powders dissolved and the color turned black. The mixture was kept stirring for 2 h, and 6 ml diethyl ether was carefully added. The product, [FeII(dsdm)]2Ni0(CO)2], (0.029 g) was isolated as black needles after 2 days. (IR (THF): 1873, 1906 cm-1)
Refinement
All hydrogen atoms were included at geometrically calculated positions and refined using a riding model. Isotropic displacement parameters of hydrogen atoms were fixed to 1.2 times the Ueq value of the atoms they are linked to (1.5Ueq for methyl groups). The final structure was checked for missing symmetry using PLATON (Spek, 2009).
Disorder of the molecule was refined with the help of 2 restraints on the bond distances N3-C11B and S4-C14B. In addition, all minor-component atoms were constrained to have identical anisotropic displacement parameters to their respective major-component counterparts. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically.

Special details
| Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
| Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |
