Reaction between [Fe2(μ-S2)(CO)6] and [Ca(thf)4(dpp-BIAN)] [dpp-BIAN = 1,2-bis-(2,6-diisopropyl­phenyl­imino)­acenaphthene and thf = tetra­hydro­furan] proceeds as a redox process via a two-electron reduction of [Fe2(μ-S2)(CO)6] and a two-electron oxidation of (dpp-BIAN)2−, resulting in the formation of the title heterometallic trinuclear cluster, [CaFe2(μ3-S)2(C4H8O)4(CO)6], and neutral dpp-BIAN. In the cluster, the CaII atom is connected to two S atoms of an Fe2S2 core [Ca—S = 2.7463 (8) and 2.7523 (8) Å]. No Fe—Ca bonds are formed [Fe⋯Ca = 3.6708 (6) and 3.5802 (6) Å]. There are five close C–H⋯O–C contacts in the crystal structure.

FeS-clusters are part of the active sites of several enzymes such as hydrogenases. The development of model compounds for these kinds of compounds has attracted the attention of chemists for several decades (Gloaguen & Rauchfuss, 2009). In this context we aimed to study the chemical reduction of [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] with a calcium complex containing the redox active ligand 1,2-bis-(2,6-diisopropylphenylimino)acenaphthene (dpp-BIAN) as the reducing agent. Reduction of [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] with [Ca(thf)4(dpp-BIAN)] resulted in the formation of trinuclear calcium iron cluster of the composition [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Ca(thf)4] and neutral dpp-BIAN. Formally the process may be considered as a 2-electron reduction of [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] by (dpp-BIAN)2- located in the coordination sphere of Ca2+. After 2-electron oxidation (dpp-BIAN)2- becomes neutral dpp-BIAN and is readily substituted by O-donor THF molecules due to the extremely high oxophilicity of Ca2+.

The two-electron reduction of [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] by [Ca(thf)4(dpp-BIAN)] led to the formation of the heterometallic trinuclear cluster [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Ca(thf)4]. In the molecule of the cluster the Ca atom is connected to two S atoms of the Fe2S2 core (d(Ca1–S2) = 2.7463 (8) Å; d(Ca1–S1) = 2.7523 (8) Å). In the case observed here, no Fe–Ca bonds are formed (d(Fe2–Ca1) = 3.6708 (6) Å; d(Fe1–Ca1) = 3.5802 (6) Å). All atoms lie in general positions.

The C–O ligands are surrounded by H-atoms from neighboring THF-ligands. There are five close C–H···O–C contacts with O···H distances from 2.571 Å to 2.672 Å (Table 2).

The S–S distances and the S–Fe–Fe–S torsion angle in the Fe2S2 core depend on the atomic radius and the nature of the heterometal. In case of [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] itself with no heterometal attached the S–S distances average 2.021 (2) Å, the S–Fe–Fe–S torsion angle is 66.89 (2) ° (Eremenko et al., 1994). In the case of [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Pt(PPh3)2] d(S–S) is 2.86 (4) Å, the S–Fe–Fe–S torsion angle is 97 (2) ° (Pasynskii et al., 1993). For [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Sn(µ-Nt-Bu)2SiMe2] d(S–S) equals 3.048 (3) Å, the torsion angle is 102.50 (3) ° (Veith et al., 2005), and in [Fe2S2(CO)6Ca(thf)4] described here d(S–S) = 3.129 (3) Å, and the S1–Fe1–Fe2–S2 torsion angle is 107.78 (2) °. The large variability, especially of the S–Fe–Fe–S torsion angle, indicates a pronounced geometric flexibility of the [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S2)] core.

Experimental top

All manipulations were carried out under strictly anaerobic and anhydrous conditions. For the synthesis an ampoule possessing two sections (1 and 2) orientated at right angles to each other was used. In an argon glove box [Fe2(CO)6(µ-S)2] (100 mg, 0.29 mmol), [Ca(thf)4(dpp-BIAN)] (241 mg, 0.29 mmol) and a Teflon-coated magnetic stirring bar were placed into section 1. The ampoule was connected to a vacuum condensation line and THF (30 ml) was condensed into the same section cooled by liquid nitrogen. Then, the ampoule was flame sealed and placed on a magnetic stirrer. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to room temperature at permanent stirring, which was subsequently continued for 24 h. A black microcrystalline precipitate of crude [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Ca(thf)4] was separated by decantation of the solution to section 2 and washed out by THF in the following manner: the ampoule was mounted so that the section 2 was oriented vertically, section 1 containing the black precipitate was located on top horizontally, a recirculation of THF (evaporation into section 2, condensation into section 1 and flowing down to section 2) was achieved by means of a temperature difference between the sections: 1 - 288 K, 2 - 298 K. In a period of a few days this led to enlargement of the crystallites of [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Ca(thf)4] and complete removal of dpp-BIAN the solid. After that all volatiles were removed from the section 1 by cooling of section 2 with liquid nitrogen. Section 1 with black crystalline [Fe2(CO)63-S)2Ca(thf)4] (yield 60%) was flame sealed and opened in a glovebox. The compound is extremely air sensitive, so satisfactory analytical data were not obtained. Uniformity of the sample was proved by IR spectroscopy which exhibits the expected characteristic pattern in the CO region (cm-1): 2083 m, 2042 s, 2024 s, 2006 s, 1976 s, 1943 s, 1904 s (in mineral oil). Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were found in the black crystalline mass. Selection of the crystal for X-ray analysis was performed under a microscope in a glovebox. The crystal was taken up in a drop of mineral oil and was immediately mounted on the diffractometer.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s 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 > σ(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.
